This episode is truly a full circle moment for me because the first time D.j. and I actually met was when he reached out after listening to a few episodes from Season 1 of ⁠Sports Business Secrets⁠!I know you’ll enjoy all the topics we discuss, there’s definitely a few stories you won’t want to miss.

the college recruiting process and why he chose ⁠IUPUI⁠
the agent selection process and making the GLeague
battling through injuries and planning a “career restart”
improving his jump shot with Dave Love
his ⁠experience⁠ at ⁠Europrobasket⁠ with Brad Kanis
finally ⁠signing his contract⁠ and what happened next
his retirement decision… and the call that changed that
his role and responsibilities at ⁠OPS⁠
starting his own company (⁠Recruitabl⁠)
and much more
