    I went to school in Fresno and played high school ball there during Chris Herren's time with the Bulldogs. He was already a legend before he got there. Maybe notorious was also the word because everyone knew he was still partying. But it's crazy everyone always pulled for him. Once and a while the RUclips gods will suggest a channel or video with Chris Herren talking about his drug addiction and overcoming it. I always finish the video even though I know his story from the beginning. It's really cool af that he's become a star and hero but not in the game of basketball but in the game of life and that's the most important game. "If you were a kid, would you look up to you". Beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. Keep up the good fight man. Go Dogs!

    I can relate to your story for so many reasons. For 1 I lost my twin brother to a hit and run accident when I was still in my addiction and thanks to the Lord I’m 5 years and 2 days sober. You see my sobriety date is on July 17 2017 my mom’s birthday is on July 19 which is today and I can honestly say that my mom has her son back thank you 😊 for your story.

      Chris had the talent to be an NBA Hall of Fame Player. He was that good and he truly lost everything but his wife & 3 kids to Heroin.
      He speaks from his heart and is an excellent speaker.

    It's incredible how good of a dedicated woman this man had. He put her through the worst hell ever and they still made it as far as I know. I love this guy's story and I envy his outcome.
