Manage episode 303241453 series 2972128
We are blessed to have Guice in the house today! If you’re not familiar with Jermaine Barnes then now is a good time to change that. It’s one of those basketball stories that every young hooper should hear and one that everyone will respect.
Jermaine Barnes has always been a student of the game. Of course his explosive dunks raised plenty of eyebrows, but the amount of studying and work he put in to master his footwork, fundamentals, relationship with the ball, and his lethal mid-range game is what makes Barnes such a unique and automatic scorer. JB’s basketball journey is like none other. He went from National Player of the Year at Atlanta Christian, to leading seven different countries in scoring over the span of 8 years, including dropping a historic 63 piece in Japan. He won a silver medal, appeared in SLAM Magazine, and caught the attention of Sam Mitchell which led to a stint with the Minnesota Timberwolves. Barnes shares great stories about Kwame Brown, Keith Closs, Sam Mitchell, Kevin Garnett, WILD experiences overseas, overcoming adversity from his injury, his relationship with God and MUCH more.
There are simply just too many achievements and highlights of the Jermaine Barnes journey to list in a quick summary. You will truly need to listen to his story to fully appreciate and understand all that he has overcome and accomplished throughout his career. He may not get all the glory that some of the biggest names in sports get from the media or the average fan, but he sure as hell gets the respect from those guys. He’s about to have yours too if he doesn’t already.
Thank you Jermaine Barnes!
