Then they position as this nice Mormon kid who doesn't think about fame and fortune. They make allusions to academics, even though he'll barely get his books before he leaves. Clever marketing but I feel very used.
Why LDS would root for him is beyond me, but I generally eschew the NBA, given its group of thugs and criminals.
