The Memphis Grizzlies selected West Virginia guard Javon Small with the No. 48 pick in the second round of the 2025 NBA Draft on June 26.

Amid all of this year's lovely familial draft reactions, former West Virginia point guard Javon Small's grandfather might take the cake. When the Memphis Grizzlies drafted Small and helped him realize his basketball dream, the ESPN camera panned to his grandfather, powerfully overcome with so much happiness and emotion.

He's just the sixth former Mountaineer this century to be taken, joining Joe Alexander, Devin Ebanks, Da'Sean Butler, and Jevon Carter, in addition to McBride.Small began his career at East Carolina and then spent one year each at Oklahoma State and West Virginia to round out his collegiate career.
