LOOK: Ohio State basketball hosts stars of the past with team of the present

The not-so-distant past meets the present!

We are still months away from the next Ohio State basketball season, but there’s still a lot of things happening behind the scenes. In order to keep up, we often stalk the Ohio State Hoops Twitter account. We did just that and saw some pretty interesting video and photos shared Monday.

From the looks of it, Ohio State had a workout with the current team, including the freshmen, all at the same time it brought in some stars of the past. Captured in some of the photos were Evan Turner, Aaron Craft, Jon Diebler, Sam Thompson, D’Angelo Russell, Jared Sullinger, and more.

We took some of the tweets shared by the Ohio State basketball team and have them for you here. It’s pretty clear that Chris Holtmann embraces the past with the current state of the program and that’s a good move for recruiting. I mean, just think about Malaki Branham mixing it up with pros at practice.

Now, all that’s left to do is to add to this legacy with more pros in the NBA. It’s been a bit of a dry run with the most recent teams, and it’s time to turn the heat up again.
