Basketball Background
Coach Stevie played in the Pro Am leagues for 14-years, and played in the Drew league for 5 of the 14- years; In the Drew league in Los Angeles, Ca were he played against
NBA players who were hungry to get better. The Drew league is southern California's version of Rucker Park in New York every great player comes there or growup there. Examples of being in the Drew league:
I remember when Kobe Bryant and James Harden came to the Drew league Kobe had 45-points and won the game over James Harden who had 44, Kevin Durant, LeBron James, and many great basketball players came and still come today. Every great basketball player doesn't make it to the NBA and a lot are found in these places. The great ones know where they can go to get better in these shark tanks of hungry basketball players.These are mostly Pro Am, overseas, and before now it was called the D-league that now days is called the G-league were the NBA gets there good player who become great player. I played basketball all my life and got very good at it but worked and started my own business and while in California someone saw me playing street ball and invited me to the Pro Am leagues where I evolved and even played against NBA players, and some of the great old school And one players came and played on my team against the other teams in the Drew league with NBA players. While, I was in Southern California for 15 years of my life I coached youth basketball and taught basketball fundamentals classes for kids ages 5-years to 20-years old; boys and girls until they became young adults; some grew up with me to play high school and even to the College levels. I coached locally here at North Star in 2017 and won coach of the year. I’m dedicated to our youth and truly care about their futures and their opportunities to grow up in this life.
