Julia Louis-Dreyfus' son is a Northwestern basketball walk-on

On Wednesday, Northwestern University announced a new walk-on for their 2015-16 basketball team – a freshman named Charlie Hall.

His name probably doesn’t mean a whole lot…until you look at his bio on Northwestern’s website.

Welcome to new @NUMensBball walk-on Charlie Hall. Yada, yada, yada…you might know his mother. http://t.co/S6qLrNTEpr pic.twitter.com/ks0XE8hmdp

Personal: Born Charles Thompson Hall … Son of Brad Hall and Julia Louis-Dreyfus … Parents are both actors and Northwestern alums … Mother is a seven-time Emmy Award winner who has starred in television shows such as Seinfeld, The New Adventures of Old Christine and Veep … Attended same high school as former NBA players Baron Davis and Austin Croshere and actors Jack Black, Jonah Hill, Gwyneth Paltrow, Kate Hudson and Zooey Deschanel.

Oh. His mom is Julia Louis-Dreyfus, the star of Veep and one of the stars of Seinfeld.

But how’s that for a bio? “Mother is a seven-time Emmy Award winner”. You usually see things like “father was an all-Big Ten football player”, not “mother is a seven-time Emmy Award winner”!

Who knows if Hall will even see the court for Chris Collins’ team this year, but his background is pretty great.
