Redd visited a school in Kiryat Arba, Hebron’s sister city where played with
local students. At the school Redd stated, “I am enjoying your beautiful nation, and we
are humbled to be here. Basketball has been very good to me. It has literally taken me
all over the world, and the more I travel, I understand that basketball is a universal
language. One of the first things I saw when I came to the nation was a
basketball court, and it really touched me.”
