Here’s why Tigers fans should thank K.J. Lawson
“The city means so much to me,” said K.J. Lawson, seen here playing for Tulane in 2020. “It means a lot to Memphis kids. People will never understand if you’re not from here what it means to put on that jersey and play in that FedExForum after all the greats that came before you.” (Michael Wyke/AP file)
K.J. Lawson never lost faith that his younger brothers would have the opportunity to star in Memphis, even when he was booed.
