Chris thanks for talking to German Hoops. Where are you at the moment and how was your workout session today?

I’m in North Carolina right now just got back from training with one of the best in business out in LA Keion Kindred from Clc basketball but here now working with few trainers I worked out with in high school and also spending time with my kids!!!

You were telling me a few days ago how excited you were about your chances of playing in a new league called the Amerileague. Today it came out that the whole league is a fraud. How crushed are you?

Yes I was very excited and was ready for the competition that was in the newly found league with ex NBA players. It would’ve been a boost for my game to test against players that most of us seen playing at the top level even though I play a lot of my friends during the summer that’s at that level already! Crushed wouldn’t be the word for the information I found out I would say more of a back to the drawing board type of situation mentally for me. I’ve been promised a lot before with this game I love and sometimes things don’t go the way you expect them to. I just learned to persevere and grow!!
