One of those newcomers has a last name that Explorers fans were once accustomed to booing. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/corporate-movers-usa.com\/?p=317\">Chris Rabb extends his support | Morning Newsletter<\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Rising junior guard Jamison Lynam, the grandson of former St. Joseph\u2019s and 76ers coach Jim Lynam \u2014 is coming to 20th and Olney from Division III Arcadia.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The 5-foot-10 Lynam was named the Middle Atlantic Conference Freedom Rookie of the Year as a freshman, then averaged 17.7 points and 3.0 assists to earn all-conference first-team honors as a sophomore. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cI think I had in my head from the day that I stepped on Arcadia\u2019s campus that eventually I would want to get into the portal,\u201d Lynam said. \u201cBut when it really came down to it, I can\u2019t lie, it was a little hard because of how much I felt that they did for me. \u2026 The stuff that I learned at Arcadia and the development in my game that took place while I was there \u2014 I\u2019m going to carry that on with me. I think I\u2019m in for a pretty successful future because of it.\u201d <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Lynam, the primary ballhandler for the Knights, had the opportunity to learn under head coach Adam Van Zelst, a former point guard. Van Zelst starred for Albright from 2006 to 2010. He ranks top 10 in all-time assists for the program. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The Knights coach, who recruited Lynam during his postgraduate year at Massanutten Military Academy in Virginia, is excited for his former star. He also pointed out that Lynam\u2019s hard work does not end here. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s not a finished product by any stretch of imagination,\u201d Van Zelst said. \u201cI think Jamison will tell you the same. He\u2019s grown up a lot in two years, and I think he still has a long way to go. I\u2019m excited for him at La Salle, I think it\u2019s an awesome opportunity. \u2026 I know he\u2019s going to work his butt off. They\u2019re going to have to kick him out of the gym.\u201d <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>On his official visit to La Salle, Lynam felt that the Explorers \u201chad really done their homework\u201d on his game and how it would fit in a crowded backcourt. The staff also detailed what Lynam needed to work on and how the team could facilitate his improvement. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>That was all he needed to hear. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cIt just seemed like a spot where not only I would be part of a winning culture, but also be a part of a staff that wants me to get better,\u201d Lynam said. \u201cI think that\u2019s the goal for any competitor, you just want to get better every single day.\u201d <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>La Salle coach Darris Nichols added: \u201c[Lynam] is a good piece that fits because we needed some more experience \u2014 a guy that can come into practice every day, compete, really love the game, and is a gym rat. You\u2019re not only trying to get talent, you\u2019re trying to create a culture that\u2019s one of confidence.\u201d <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<h3>\u2018We say grace, and then we talk ball\u2019<\/h3>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Lynam\u2019s family tree is deeply intertwined with Philadelphia basketball. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>His grandfather, Jim Lynam, willed St. Joe\u2019s as a player to the Final Four in 1961. He later coached the program from 1978 to 1981 before serving in multiple NBA coaching roles, including with the Sixers as head coach from 1988 to 1992. He is now a television analyst for NBC Sports Philadelphia. <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/corporate-movers-usa.com\/?p=315\">What we\u2019re watching for in New Jersey\u2019s primary elections<\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Meanwhile, Jamison\u2019s aunt is Dei Lynam, a former Sixers television reporter who was recently hired by La Salle to coach the women\u2019s golf team. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>The connections do not end there. He is related, through marriage, to the Boyle and Doyle families \u2014 who boast a slew of prominent players and coaches throughout the area. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cAt Christmas and Thanksgiving dinner, we say grace, and then we talk ball,\u201d Jamison Lynam said. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>There was even a member of Lynam\u2019s family on Nichols\u2019 staff. His cousin, Mike Doyle Jr., served as an assistant with the Explorers for seven seasons until taking the head coach position at Delaware Valley. Before departing, Doyle alerted Nichols that his cousin was in the portal. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cWhen you come from those families, you can either be doing it because people are pushing you and you don\u2019t really want to do it and you may not have the work ethic,\u201d Nichols said. \u201cWith [Lynam], I feel like he\u2019s doing it because he wants to create a name for himself. That\u2019s what stood out to me the most.\u201d <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>His last name has also proved to be a double-edged sword \u2014 especially when he made headlines at Arcadia. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cI always wanted it to be about Jamison, because I feel like it\u2019s tough for him because they have such a rich history and a name,\u201d Van Zelst said. \u201cJamison is trying to find his way, and for us, anytime there were articles after games or people would ask about his grandpa, it was just about Jamison. \u2026 We wanted to highlight him as the main character and him as an individual person.\u201d <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Despite feeling some pressure, Lynam says his family never pushed him to play college basketball. He even joked that he didn\u2019t have a \u201cLavar Ball-type of dad,\u201d hounding him to take the sport seriously. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\n<div>\n<blockquote>\n<div>\n<div>\n<div> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div><svg><g><g><g><\/g><\/g><\/g><\/svg><\/div>\n<div>\n<div>View this post on Instagram<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div> <\/div>\n<div> <\/div>\n<div> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div> <\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>Instead, his family gave him the tools needed to succeed and let him decide whether to use them. <\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201c[Basketball] is in my blood for sure, but it\u2019s always been up to me,\u201d Lynam said. \u201cIn terms of knowledge of the game and in terms of the passion I have for it, I\u2019m lying if I didn\u2019t say that wasn\u2019t a bit hereditary. \u2026 The freedom that my grandpa, my father, my cousins have given me, in terms of \u2018this is your choice, you either want it or you don\u2019t.\u2019 I was able to find a authentic, natural love for it.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/corporate-movers-usa.com\/?p=313\">\u26be Run at history| Sports Daily Newsletter<\/a><\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Lynam played two seasons at Division III Arcadia, where he averaged 17.7 points as a sophomore.
