Julian, who graduated from high school in 2020, has been facing uncertainty in his professional basketball career due to his short stature recently. Despite being an outstanding basketball player during his childhood, his height of only 5 feet 7 inches has become a determining factor in American basketball pro-level competitions.

This has left him with fewer opportunities compared to other collegiate and professional players who are taller, heavier, and more athletic.

Although he is not actively playing competitive basketball, Julian has established a strong online presence that he could use to his advantage. Nonetheless, his future in professional basketball remains unclear.

It is noteworthy to mention that Julian Newman still maintains a connection with the game of basketball, albeit not in a professional capacity. After graduating from Prodigy Prep in 2020, Julian has been observed participating in exhibition games arranged by BallIsLife in recent years.

Despite Julian Newman’s current age of 22 years, it seems that his aspirations of playing in the NBA have been, sadly, quashed.

Nonetheless, Julian has ventured into other domains beyond basketball. He has successfully garnered a substantial following of 669,000 on Instagram, where he showcases his family’s brand, Prodigy.

Moreover, Julian is an entrepreneur and an ambassador for reputable brands such as Ethika and Nova Men; although Julian is no longer the basketball prodigy he once was, he appears to be leading a satisfying life.

When Julian was in fifth grade, he started playing basketball for the middle school team at Downey Christian School. He was really good and quickly moved up to the varsity team. Even though he was the youngest point guard at only 4 feet 5 inches and around 70 pounds, he was amazing on the court and averaged 12.2 points and 10.5 assists per game.

In 2012, a video of Julian’s basketball skills was posted on YouTube, and it went viral! Everyone was talking about him, and he was even featured in famous publications like The New York Times, The Huffington Post, Tampa Bay Times, and Sports Illustrated.

He was even invited to be on TV shows like The Ellen DeGeneres Show, Steve Harvey, and Good Morning America. By the time he was in 10th grade, Julian had already scored an impressive 3,873 points.

 Later on, he played for his dad’s basketball team at Prodigy Prep high school and was very successful. In his senior year, he was amazing, averaging 32.3 points, 6.9 assists, 5.4 rebounds, and 2.8 steals.

Julian’s basketball career was also featured in the Born Ready YouTube docuseries, and his family even had their own reality show called Hello Newmans. Because he became very popular online, Julian has made money from selling merchandise and being a brand ambassador.

In fact, his family even started their own sports apparel brand called Prodigy. It’s estimated that Julian’s net worth is between $100,000 and $1 million.
