Donnell Beverly is in Russ Westbrook's entourage, so that would give him another reason to be at the game.

What? How is this the first time I've heard of this... I'm really kinda curious how this happened. Were they friends before he came to UConn?

I'm pretty sure they were high school teammates, but they were a year apart: http://sports.yahoo.com/ncaa/basketball/recruiting/player-Donnell-Beverly-54232 | http://sports.yahoo.com/ucla/basketball/recruiting/player-Russell-Westbrook-45053

Well the good news is in D Bev's Instagram on the most recent pic he says "#HOWABOUTTHEMHUSKIES!!#IMDEFGOINGTODALLAS!!"

So quite possible he can get Westbrook there, would be nice if he could get Westbrook on our bandwagon.

(Oh and I like how one of the people who liked that picture was Craig Austrie.

Huh. I remember some questions way back when about why we used our one available scholarship for a guard when we already had a bunch. It all makes sense now, eight years later.
