Nerlens Noel’s Inspirational Visit To Haiti

Philadelphia Inquirer reporter Keith Pompey followed famed basketball player Nerlens Noel to Haiti over the weekend! Noel confided to Pompey that he hopes to represent Haiti at the 2020 Olympics games. He further stated:

“I want to be involved with the Haitian community. I want to make sure that we keep progressing, getting better, and getting more exposure and make sure that we are ready to bring this country to another level.”

Noel’s trip to Haiti apparently made an impression on the NBA star. He’s pushing for more Haiti-based athletes to receive scholarships to play for U.S. teams, the article further states.

Hurray for Nerlens Noel! His heart is in the right place, and something tells me that his involvement with Haiti’s youths is going to be continuous.
