🌟 Las Vegas, Nevada — The Chosen One — Sports Illustrated at 16

Bryce Aron Max Harper was born October 16, 1992, in Las Vegas, Nevada — Clark County, the desert city of spectacle and entertainment that has become one of America's great metropolitan areas. He was 16 years old when Sports Illustrated put him on their cover with the headline "The Chosen One." He earned his GED early at age 16 to become eligible for the MLB Draft sooner through the community college system, attending the College of Southern Nevada. When the 2010 draft arrived, the Washington Nationals selected him first overall. He was one of the most anticipated prospects in the history of the sport. The 2012 Topps Update RC came out when he was making those promises reality — stepping into the major leagues as a teenager and winning the NL Rookie of the Year Award.
