Draft Life: Sam Dekker

Just a few months ago, Sam Dekker was leading Wisconsin to the NCAA title game, and just a couple of weeks from now, he’ll be adjusting to life as an NBA rookie. But for now, he’s in the in-between. The grind. The training. The … laundry. Dekker welcomed The Players’ Tribune inside a day in his life as a college hoops standout prepping for the NBA stage and the next biggest day in his career: Draft Day.
