On this episode, I have the privilege of chopping it up with my guy, music artist, and 17 year NBA vet, CJ Miles. (@Masfresco)

CJ talks about his introduction to hoops, growing up in Dallas Texas, and attending the same high school that former NCAA champion, and 2X NBA All-star Larry Johnson went to - Skyline High School.

CJ speaks about the thought process that went into him leaving high school and forgoing his college eligibility to jump into the NBA, and become the youngest player at 18, ever drafted by the Utah Jazz, 34th overall in 2005.

CJ also discusses his experiences battling the gauntlet that was the NBA Western Conference through the playoffs, matching up with the likes of Kobe Bryant, Carmelo Anthony, Tracy McGrady, and Manu Ginobili.

Finally, CJ opens up about his time playing with the Raptors, the run they made, and the love that he felt from the fans up North in Toronto.

During his playing career, CJ was known for being a gritty, skilled, sharpshooter. As a music artist, Masfresco is known for being a longtime hip-hop fan, historian and emcee with a very mellow style. Tune in to hear more about his story from setting off alarms in his high school gym to getting respect and praise from NBA legends Kobe Bryant and Larry Bird.
