Keifer Sykes - Hoops Career, Fatherhood, Deep Reflection, & Tight Hugs - Episode #58

Keifer Sykes is a professional basketball player known for a decorated college career at the University of Wisconsin–Green Bay, a championship win in Poland with Legia Warsaw, and his time in the NBA with the Indiana Pacers. He recently became the General Manager for the UWGB men's basketball team and had his #24 jersey retired by the program. His life and career are the subject of the 2018 documentary film Chi-Town. In this episode, Brad and Keifer have a deep and reflective discussion about the contrast of growing up in a safe and loving home but being surrounded by poverty and violence, being a teenage parent and division 1 athlete (at the same time!) when he came to Green Bay, giving the tightest hugs, losing his Father, being introduced to yoga and meditation by Tramon Williams, hoops and jumping out of the gym, the importance of reading and personal growth, and much, MUCH, more. https://www.instagram.com/ksykesyb28/https://www.free10foundation.org/As always, a huge shoutout to our sponsors at Karouser delivering a non-alcoholic social beverage right to your door.
