Is Amare Stoudemire Jewish?

Is Amare Stoudemire Jewish? That’s the question many of his Twitter followers have been asking in recent weeks. I haven’t been able to find any confirmation that Stoudemire is indeed Jewish, but there certainly are some clues.

Two weeks ago, Stoudemire said this on Twitter:

For whatever is born of (Yah) GOD overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world– our faith. 1 John 5:4 Shalom

Last week, Stoudemire said this:

Boker Tov !! People. Have a great day. I’m done with a weight lift, next stop Basketball Court. All ways working. Shalom.

Finally, here’s the ultimate clew that Amare Stoudemire is Jewish:

Yes Indeed !! RT @Shims11: @Amareisreal Whats up w the hebrew? Are you jewish?

Earlier this offseason, Amare Stoudemire left the Phoenix Suns to sign a $100 million deal with the New York Knicks. The state of New York has a Jewish population of nearly 10%. In New York City alone, there are over two million Jews. With Amare Stoudemire, it appears there is one more Jewish person in NYC.
