The leagues are very competitive and I would be happy to help a team compete for a championship.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Greenberg may not have been brought up with a strong Jewish background so his first visit to Israel was definitely an unforgettable experience, \u201cThe Maccabiah Games was an eye opening experience for me. I was able to see what Judaism was all about and take part in the culture. I was able to learn more about my family&#8217;s background and the history of where I came from. I will cherish the memories of the Maccabiah forever.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With the desire to succeed in Israel, Greenberg spoke about what separates him from the rest, \u201cI have shown myself to be a prolific scorer who can play in all types of systems and I\u2019m also an extreme competitor who wants to win. My relentless work ethic, passion for competing and life long desire to play professional basketball are qualities that make me an asset to any organization.\u201d<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/IMG_0239.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/IMG_0239-1024x518.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"518\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-8337\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/IMG_0239-1024x518.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/IMG_0239-300x152.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/IMG_0239-768x388.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/IMG_0239-1536x776.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/IMG_0239-1080x546.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/IMG_0239.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/IMG_0240.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/IMG_0240-1024x768.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" class=\"aligncenter size-large wp-image-8338\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/IMG_0240-1024x768.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/IMG_0240-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/IMG_0240-768x576.jpg 768w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/IMG_0240-1536x1152.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/IMG_0240-1080x810.jpg 1080w, https:\/\/sportsrabbi.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/07\/IMG_0240.jpg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Not only is Grant Greenberg the all-time men\u2019s collegiate leading scorer in the state of Kansas with 3,330 total career points but he\u2019s also a \u201cMentsch\u201d.
