Ezeli returns home

Festus Ezeli got back to Yuba College, as Jimmy Graben reports.

#30

With the 30th choice in the NBA draft and needing to get bigger, the Golden State Warriors called Festus Ezeli.

The young man came to Yuba City at age 14, enrolled two years later at Yuba College but never took the floor for Coach Doug Cornelius. He still has a Sidd Finch status up there.

Here's a March 2011 feature on Ezeli.

Some press for Mr. Ezeli

Jason Jones has the background on a little known big out of Sacramento who ended up at an academically prestigious college and will now be drafted by the NBA.
