Posted May 11, 2025
Jermaine O’Neal Jr. and Jaden Toombs aren’t brothers by blood, but their bond is as close as it gets. The two have been living together since 8th grade and have been with each other each step of their basketball journey. It’s only right they’re both suiting up for SMU next season. “It’s been amazing just watching each other grow,” Toombs told ZAGSBLOG. (Zag's Blog)
