AVERY BRADLEY DRAFTED BY BOSTON CELTICS
By: Jeanne Hanigan
Although he spent his senior year at Findlay Prep in Nevada, Avery Bradley still remains a Lion at heart. The Bellarmine community cheered him on in the old Booster Gym where he and Abdul Gaddy (B'09) wowed the packed crowds. During their junior year, Bradley and Gaddy led the Lions basketball team to 3rd place in State. 
The school watched him as a Texas Longhorn during his freshman year at college, and his T-town supporters will continue to love him as a Boston Celtic. As he starts over once again, this time in the NBA, Bradley claims the #0 for the Celtics, the same number he donned as a Longhorn.
From the West Coast to the South to the East Coast, Avery Bradley carries his Lion pride and heart with him.
Newly-drafted Avery Bradley (#19 pick to the Boston Celtics) celebrates his basketball success with his family, friends and fans at the Tacoma Golf and Country Club on Sunday, June 27.
