Basketball question.

Why in the player video does Dread say he is from Detroit? Also when the starters are introduced it is announced as Detroit.

He's originally from Detroit. Still has lots of family there. Left Detroit when he was around 7 years old eventually settling in Washington DC where he went to high school. He was particularly close to his grandfather who remained in Detroit after Myles and his family moved. His grandfather passed away a couple of months ago and Myles might just be using Detroit as a way to stay connected to his grandfather's memory.

And out of the 2 locations, Detroit for his first 7 years, and DC the rest of the time; he may just relate more to his roots in Detroit, where he was born and where much of his extended family resides.

Why would ANYONE ever want to be associated with DC!
