Rakeem Christmas Gifted With Too Many NBA Workout Requests

This seems like a good problem to have.

NBA teams are lining up to bring Rakeem Christmas in for private workouts following his strong showing at last week's draft combine, when he averaged 19.5 points per game in two 5-on-5 scrimmages.

According to Steve Pina, Christmas' agent, the former Syracuse Orange center has about 23 workout requests, too many for him to attend.

"He's not going to be able to do all of them," Pina told syracuse.com's Mike Waters. "We're going to have to cancel five or six."

Since the combine, Christmas has not only gained more attention from NBA teams.
