Laura Govan commends Izela Arenas

Izela and Alijah Arenas' mother Laura Govan appeared on YouTuber Carlos King's "Reality With the King" podcast in October and was beaming with pride while talking about her daughter:

"My daughter, now 18, at Louisville, doing amazing," Govan said. "Oh my God, she got a full scholarship. One of the top 10 players in the country, she's phenomenal, my baby lefty. I got two lefties, by the way. We'll get into the rest, but she is an amazing young woman, amazing."

All of her four kids are now playing basketball. Her younger daughter Hamiley Arenas is playing for Notre Dame and her 14-year-old son went viral for putting up buckets against high school players.
