He’s the model — hard worker, outstanding teammate, loyal, soft-spoken, easy to root for.

Gave us some huge thrills, taking us back to the big dance after a thirty year absence, then making it to the G League, and then through continued perseverance and performance is ultimately rewarded with a guaranteed NBA contract with the storied Boston Celtics.

Congrats RHJ — proud to call you a Rutgers alum.

Those huge thrills include the near half-court buzzer beater to beat Purdue!

It's really cool to see Ron have this kind of success. Maybe he's third to pops and Dylan, but he's still a one in a million talent. Very happy for him.
