Last weekend, Marquette freshman forward Dawson Garcia participated in the G League Elite Camp. The big man from Minnesota earned the invite after declaring for the 2021 NBA Draft without hiring an agent and thus preserving his NCAA eligibility. Four men were promoted from the Elite Camp to the NBA Combine.... but Garcia was not one of them.
Thus, when Garcia posted his first tweet in over two months to make an announcement on Friday evening, it was not a surprise that he had something to say. The contents of said announcement? A little bit more surprising.
