Dodgers News: Mookie Betts Drafted By Harlem Globetrotters

Los Angeles Dodgers star Mookie Betts was among those selected during the 14th annual Harlem Globetrotters players draft. Betts was the second of five players drafted, with Sister Margaret Ann, Russell Wilson, Shaun Kirk and the late Chadwick Boseman also being taken.

It remains to be seen if Betts will play a game with the team, but the Globetrotters annually select high-profile celebrities and athletes that exemplify what the organization is all about, which is fun, entertaining and family-friendly basketball.

Other celebrities who have been drafted in recent years include Lionel Messi, Tim Howard, Neymar Jr., Usain Bolt, Missy Franklin, Mariano Rivera, Aaron Judge, Kevin Hart and Mahershala Ali.
