Former Brookline Warrior, Jeff Adrien, signs with the Houston Rockets

Brookline High Schools class of 2004 standout, Jeff Adrien is in the NBA once again.  Terminating his pro-contract with Italian Pro League team, Benetton Treviso, Adrien has signed a 2-year deal with the Rockets.  Jeff made the Golden State Warriors roster for portions of the 2010-11 season before being released in June before the lock out.  Jeff has played professionally in Spain, Italy, and the NBA, after an outstanding career at the University of Connecticut.

“Just a credit to Brookline and a great example of a humble kid who has worked tirelessly to take his talents and add to them through hard work and perseverance.   People hated to see Jeff enter the gym partly because he had no fear of any player on the floor.  That attitude is what allows him as a power forward of 6’6″, to compete against the best players in the world.”
