Freedmen’s Town is where many former slaves formed a thriving community following the declaration of emancipation on June 19, 1865. Many of the original streets, churches and homes, including the home in Friday’s project, remain. “It’s a great thing,” Udoka said. “I kind of got an update about what it’s all about and obviously myself being new here, to get out in the community and do some things,, I’m kind of getting integrated into the community. I think it’s a great thing for everybody.
“It’s big, obviously a team that didn’t make the playoffs,” Udoka said. “Guys have been off for over a month now. It’s a chance for our young guys to get back in the gym and use the past as motivation going forward.”Thursday’s Game 1 of the NBA Finals
