Kenny Anderson: Camp Director

Kenny Anderson is renowned for his work as a high school basketball coach, who had made quite a name for himself by the time the 2010’s came rolling around. That all changed in 2013, when he was arrested and charged for drunk driving, and subsequently let go from his prolific position. It would be a while before he found his feet again, but he did, even part of a basketball diplomacy effort with North Korea. In 2018, he was hired by Fisk University as their basketball coach.

Jay Williams: Spokesman

When he was drafted by the Bulls, Jay Williams was dubbed as one of the best to join the league. It’s safe to say that people were excited about his prospects. Unfortunately, it wasn’t meant to be, and a motorcycle accident meant the end of his contract and his career was over just like that. Working through a sudden loss like that was surely traumatic, but since, Williams has decided to dedicate his time towards becoming a spokesman, to help others gain strength from his story, as well as publishing his autobiography in 2016. Williams is quite impressive in his endeavors; co-founding Simatree, a management consulting company; part-time owner of The CabinNYC restaurant, advisor to a digital marketing agency, as well as provides financial guidance to celebrities and athletes. Oh, and of course, is an analyst for ESPN too!
