      After his game of hoops with a friend of his mum's he got a trial with the Harlem Globetrotters and now has 9 world records. Kind of how I became a doctor, my friend had a sore throat so I made him some lemon juice to soothe his sore throat then he said I should sit the medical boards exam, 2 days later I was doing heart surgery in Boston. Hustle culture, work hard, achieve your dreams!

I think we still have all the memorabilia like the coffee mugs and ashtrays all kinds of stuff. Anyway as a hooper myself...much respect and I love what he said about basically being a good person and putting in the work for yourself and others before you do it for the recognition and limelight. 👍🏽
