Whitehead since 2010, whom we have had the privilege of seeing play many times. Isaiah Whitehead is a stellar 6'4" point or combo guard, who starred at Seton Hall
University for 2 seasons, On 6/23/2016, Isaiah was drafted by the Brooklyn Nets of the NBA in the 2nd Round (42nd overall selection). Prior to college, Isaiah played High
School Basketball for the nationally-heralded Lincoln High School, in Brookyln, NY. Additionally, and more importantly, he is a fantastic young man, and is now
poised to take his basketball game to the next level in the NBA.
On September 19, 2013, Isaiah committed to attend college and play basketball for Seton Hall University in 2014. On January 30, 2014, Isaiah was named as one of 24
national 2014 McDonald All-Americans, the highest national honor that a High School basketball player can attain. As a Seton Hall freshman in 2015, Isaiah was named
to the All Big East Rookie team. In 2016, Isaiah was named to the First Team All-Big East team, and was selected as the Tournament MVP during Seton Hall's 2016 Big
East Tournament Championship victory. On May 24, 2016, after being invited to and taking part in the NBA combine, Isaiah elected to leave Seton Hall and pursue his
ultimate dream, and enter the NBA draft. Again, his decision and efforts were rewarded when he was drafted in the 2nd round of the NBA draft by his hometown
Brooklyn Nets.
Isaiah owes much of his success to his coach, mentor, and friend, Jermaine Brown,
who passed away in January, 2014. Isaiah also owes much to the strong upbringing and love that he has received from his mother.
