Former NCAA Player Of
The Year & 14 Year NBA Star
“Team Toledo is a much needed addition to the AAU world, especially for our student-athletes in Toledo. The key is whether a young man can have an NBA career like I did, or not! Either way, one day the basketball days end. Having an education is the key to adult success and has allowed me to pursue a successful business career. Academics and basketball are what Team Toledo is all about OPPORTUNITY at its best.
Some of my fondest hoops memories are that of the camaraderie built when I played AAU ball with all of the fellas from Toledo. Those friendships and business connections will last me a lifetime!”
