Ryan Turell is a forward for the Motor City Cruise and is trying to make history as the first Jewish Orthodox player to play the NBA.
"The ultimate goal for me is to try and inspire kids to just put in the work and don’t let what you believe in or where you come from hold you back," Turell told Cleveland Jewish News.
"I've said it before. It would be cool to see when I'm retired to see a couple of yarmulkes on the NBA court. That would be amazing to me."
