Aaron Nkrumah’s a really good story out of Worcester right now. Played at South HS in Worcester, before doing a postgrad year at Marianapolis. Spent a semester at Nichols, then transferred to Worcester State. At Worcester State, Nkrumah was the 2023-2024 MASCAC Player of the Year, averaging 16.9 points per game. From there, he transferred to Tennessee State. In two years at TSU, Nkrumah has excelled. Year 1: 10.9 points per game, 5.3 rebounds per game, 3 assists per game. In Year 2, he improved his numbers immensely. 17.7 points per game on 43.8% from the field (+4.1% from first year), 35.1% from three (+7.6% from first year), led the Tigers to an NCAA Tournament berth, and named the Player of the Year in the Ohio Valley Conference. This past weekend, he really stood out at the G League Combine with his two-way skills, and impressive combine results, 6’5” w/o shoes & a 6’10+” wingspan. Following that, he was invited to participate in this week’s NBA combine in Chicago which begins today. Perseverance, showing out at the D3 level in his home city, excelling in the OVC, and now making noise as a potential NBA draft pick next month. @aaronx_15
