In Episode 20 of Conversations with Chris and Cameron, former Kentucky guard Kyle Macy takes us through his remarkable basketball journey — from his early days in Peru, Indiana, and starting at Purdue, to transferring to Kentucky where he became a national champion. Macy reflects on the toughest challenges he faced as a Wildcat, the best teammates behind the scenes, and the rowdiest road environments he experienced. He also shares candid memories from his NBA career and playing overseas in Italy, including “welcome to the league” moments and the unique culture of international basketball. Beyond playing, Macy opens up about his time coaching basketball and tennis, what young players today struggle with compared to his era, and why connecting to Kentucky’s tradition matters. Finally, he discusses his new book and the legacy he hopes to leave as a player, coach, and person. A must-listen for Kentucky fans and basketball lovers alike.
