Christian Braun’s Mom Also Went Viral at NBA Draft

The NBA Draft has become all  about the Moms.

The NBA Draft took place last night and Jayhawks star Christian Braun was selected by the Denver Nuggets, it came as a bit of a surprise, as he was a borderline first round selection. But that was not as big of a surprise for NBA fans who don’t follow Big 12 basketball as when they were introduced to Christian Braun’s mom.

She quickly went viral.

Now his Mom is being more talked about then him. This is what the NBA Draft has turned into.
