Can You Make it as a Small-Town Basketball Player? [Here's the Truth]
Did you know that NBA star Carlos Boozer hails from the remote town of Juneau, Alaska? In this clip, we dive into Boozer’s incredible journey from a place you can only reach by ferry or airplane to becoming a McDonald’s All-American, a Duke standout, and an NBA star. What’s amazing about basketball is how players like Boozer, Jerry West from Cabin Creek, West Virginia, and Larry Bird from French Lick, Indiana, can rise from small towns to dominate on the big stage. We talk about the determination and talent it takes to make it from these unlikely places to the top of the basketball world.
