    1st ever Iranian to play NCAA basketball

    THANKS TO princeofpersia1 FOR THE ARTICLE


    Arsalan Kazemi, only 18 years old, he's going to play college basketball at RICE university in North Carolina next year.



    However, Rice is a small college, ranked 86th and NO PLAYER EVER made it to NBA from that school. I'm not sure he made a smart decision, considering sooo many other good schools wanted him; oaklahoma state, maryland, etc...

              believe me if i had a chance to talk to him i would tell him to STAY AWAY from maryland, we have an unbelievable Korean kid but he never gets playing time

              lets hope he does well, im sure he will try his hardest to make a good impression

                  he is not the first Iranian. There was this guy named ramin who transferred from SMC to USC and played pac 10 ball for 2 years

                    maybe he wants to be the first iranian in rice and the first player to make it to nba from there.

                      no way UNC would offer him a spot unless he was a walk on

                      good luck to him

                        who said anything about unc?

                        he did have an offer from memphis, who were runner up last year

                            you never know. there is always a first. he might get more playing time there and that might attract NBA scouts

                            man if i could play college bball and could go anywhere i would so play for DUKE
