508 Brotherhood Remains Strong

So this week in my FaceBook travels, I came across my friend Derek Hopkin's post about him and his brother Michael Bradley's friendship that has remained strong through the years and travels. I grew up with Derek and watched him have quite a bit of success on his own, so despite his schedule and the schedule of his friend Michael Bradley, former Burncoat, Kentucky, Villanova standout, 1st Round NBA draft pick, Worcester Legend...It couldn't have been easy to stay in touch. Not sure there's anyone who doesn't know Mike Bradley around here but on top of being the 17th pick in the NBA draft, he had a solid career checking in with 5 different team over 5 year span. He went on to play abroad, as well as coach, and leads a solid family lifestyle to this day. One of my driving points of this project is to portray the heart the derives from this city. Friendships, Heart, Family. Three things Worcester excels in. These two grew up here and formed a bond that's pretty common in this city if you look close. Check my man's post. Explains what we are about to a T!

Lot of history here. Great story but I can't leave the real star of this. Derek's little man. Seems like the kid has some good coaches. Future NBA prospect here-

Great post Derek. Your son will do great things in life let alone that court!

Check this vid of Derek and Mike as when they were younger...Dinosaur footage lol
