19-year-old Dylan Harper became a draft night hit on social media. The No. 2 overall pick to the San Antonio Spurs is the son of former NBA great Ron Harper, but it was Ron’s ex-wife and Dylan’s mom who stole the show with her viral fit that the internet couldn’t get enough of. Well, Dylan just shared more of her look from that night.

Dylan played ball for the Rutgers Scarlet Knights and grew up in New Jersey where mom, not dad was his coach even in high school. Ron has five championship rings — three with Michael Jordan and the Chicago Bulls and two with Shaquille ‘O Neal and Kobe Bryant.
