Brandon Roy Jr. Commits to the University of Washington

In a real “yes, you’re old” moment for some Blazers fans, Brandon Roy Jr. has committed to play basketball next season at his father’s alma mater, the University of Washington.

Roy Jr. joins the squad as a walk-on and takes the program’s final roster spot. The 6’2” Roy Jr. attended Garfield High School like his dad, and will wear his father’s number 3 for the Huskies.

Roy Jr. made the announcement on his Instagram page:

AGTG!!!! In 2009 I watched my father’s jersey be retired at UW, not knowing one day I’d get to wear it.
