Description

At one point in his high school career, CJ McCollum stood at 5 feet 2 inches tall. Yet, at that same moment, he fully believed he was going to be an NBA star. That fact alone explains the mindset and determination that lies within CJ the player, the current PA President, the wine connoisseur, and all around great person. He brings that attitude with him on and off the court and it has paid its dividends, as he has gone from an overlooked player in college to a legit NBA star on every level. Join JJ, Tommy and CJ as they discuss everything from his early high school days, his accolades in the NBA, to being the voice of the players as president of the Players Association. Then settle in for even more out of the box discussions when they tackle an EAT PRAY DUNK segment and the OM3 TOP 5/Draft.
