Playing in Front of Entire Family For First Time in Six Years, Jared Sullinger Has “Emotional” and Dominant Performance at Kingdom League

At this stage of his basketball career, one would assume playing in the Kingdom League to be old hat for Jared Sullinger.

The dominant exhibitions put forth by the former Buckeye big man in front of Columbus crowds span well over a decade. From his days as a five-star phenom playing at Northland High School and the Ohio State Fairgrounds to his showcases at the Schottenstein Center – and even some Carmen’s Crew action in The Basketball Tournament – Sullinger has had ample opportunity to wow his hometown fans over the years.

When Sullinger walked into Alumni Hall at Ohio Dominican this past Sunday to participate in another contest at the aforementioned annual summer league tournament, it figured to be a rather routine affair.
