Taylor Rooks interviews asks No. 4 overall pick Amen Thompson after being selected by Houston.
The NBA Draft just went twinning, and did so back to back. Amen Thompson went No. 4 to Houston and his twin brother Ausar Thompson went No. 5 to Detroit. It’s the first time twins went in the top 5 of the same NBA Draft.
The brothers played for the Overtime Elite program this past season.
This past season, there was Brook Lopez and Robin Lopez, Marcus Morris and Markieff Morris, Caleb Martin and Cody Martin, along with Julian Champagnie and Justin Champagnie. Kris Murray of Iowa is expected to be drafted Thursday as well; he’s the twin of Sacramento Kings forward Keegan Murray.
Amen and Ausar Thompson highlight their relationship with basketball and their fierce rivalry ahead of the 2023 NBA Draft.
