Alijah Martin, a 6-foot-2 guard and national champion with the Florida Gators, faced a unique challenge during the 2025 NBA Draft. After forgetting his passport during a previous workout opportunity with the Toronto Raptors, he ensured he brought it for his draft appearance. Drafted as the No. 39 pick by the Raptors, Martin reflected on his earlier mistake. He enjoyed a successful college career, contributing to two Final Four teams and leading the Gators to their third national championship with a notable scoring average.
"I was going to the airport, because I was already on the road doing workouts, and I was just thinking like, 'Oh, I can just show a picture, you know how you do with the ID.'"
"I get there, try to check in and I tell her I left my passport and she goes, 'Ooh, that's a bad thing.'"
