Omri Casspi, the 21-year-old small forward for Maccabi Tel Aviv, became the first Israeli basketball player selected in the first round of the NBA Draft.  Casspi was taken by the Sacramento Kings with the 23rd overall pick in yesterday’s draft.  We’re sorry we here (in New York) won’t get to see him play so often, but wish him best of luck in his new career in this elite league.
