Sean Miller might have his first recruit of the 2036 class, or maybe second since Lauri Markkanen's son is already born. 

Brooklyn Nets forward and former Arizona Wildcat Rondae Hollis-Jefferson just finished up his third season in the NBA, and is now expecting a little shimmer soon. On Monday, Hollis-Jefferson and his girlfriend revealed the gender of their future child, and it's going to be a baby boy. 

Hollis-Jefferson will be in Brooklyn for at least more, but will finish his rookie contract after the 2018-19 season, becoming a restricted free agent. Hollis-Jefferson had a break out season with the Nets, averaging 13.9 points, 6.8 rebounds and 2.5 assists per game.
