Edgecombe left home at a young age, and his debut was a testament to his years of hard work.

On October 23rd, SportsCenter Next reposted and commented on VJ Edgecumb's NBA debut:


"After years of hard work, he just completed one of the most memorable rookie debuts in NBA history."


The poster featured Edgecumb's own words:


"I came to America to play basketball, but I also knew I needed to provide for my family."


VJ Edgecumb, a native of the Bahamas, was selected by the 76ers with the third overall pick.


In the 76ers' game against the Celtics, Edgecumb started and played 42 minutes, scoring 34 points, 7 rebounds, and 3 assists in the victory.


This was the third-highest scoring rookie debut in NBA history and the highest-scoring debut by a rookie since Wilt Chamberlain in 1959.
