Oklahoma City Thunder Player Comes Home To Philadelphia To Give Back
Dion Waiters with students at E.M. Stanton School.
“I’m excited to be here,” Dion Waiters told the crowd of students at the E.M. Stanton School at 17th and Christian Streets in South Philadelphia on Thursday.
Waiters is guard for the Oklahoma City Thunder, but this is where the seed was planted.
It was at Stanton that his first grade teacher and others helped nurture his spirit. Waiters went on to high school, then Syracuse University and was drafted into the NBA in 2012. He joined the Oklahoma Thunder in 2015.
