What if the girl you loved is walking up the aisle with…

They’re not in the Capital District Basketball Hall of Fame… but they should be!
Last night was the third year that the Capital District Basketball Hall of Fame held their inductions, and current NBA rookie Jimmer Fredette – sorry, Glens Falls native and 2009 Inductee Jimmer Fredette – was on hand for the induction of new members to the Hall.

Read MoreCarol Brady caught an STD? From the Mayor of New York City??
