Remember the Girl that Wrote Letters to All NBA Teams for her Favorite Player Justin Robinson? Our C

Justin Robinson has been the MAAC player of the year two years in a row, but there is no guarantee that the 5-foot-8 guard will make it to the next level. Eleven-year-old Erica Schaeffer believes he can and will play in the NBA though.When Erica heard that Justin may have to play overseas next year she decided to help him out and send detailed letters to all 30 NBA franchises to persuade them to draft the Monmouth guard. Schaeffer received a handwritten response from Jeff Bower the general manager of the Detroit Pistons and emails from the Houston Rockets and Atlanta Hawks. I got a chance to speak with Erica following Monmouth’s MAAC Tournament loss to Siena.
