Adrian Wojnarowski, or Woj, had a storied career as an NBA insider, finding bits of information and formulating groundbreaking stories, but his red-headed find as general manager of St. Bonaventure’s basketball program might be one of his best.

Why didn’t anyone tell us Lil Dicky is playing for St. Bonaventure?

While Grahovic has a defining look, he also has an incredible story.
Woj signed young Bill Walton’s doppelganger. 😅
When you watch Joe Grahovac play for St. Bonnie’s, you can’t miss him.
He’s 6’10”, can jump out of the gym, make threes, and of course, the hair.
But what’s even more impressive about Grahovac is how he got to this point.… pic.twitter.com/LuxnlEDjqT

After living in his Toyota Tacoma, working odd jobs for cash, and playing basketball at a 24 Hour Fitness, Grahovic was invited to play in the Drew League, a prestigious pro-am league, where a scout from a junior college in California recruited him to join the team. With connections all over the country, Woj was able to see tape of the big man and attend a game, which forever altered Grahovic’s life.
Adrian Wojnarowski found this dude playing JUCO, and he has legitimate NBA buzz
This 6’10, Bill Walton look alike, is HOOPING for the Bonnies

Now, in his second season of organized basketball, Grahovic is averaging 4.8 PTS, 3.2 REB as the Bonnies are chasing an Atlantic 10 Conference championship.
An incredible story of overcoming adversity, the love of basketball, and @wojespn‘s recruitment from 3k miles away.
