The top 1% of basketball stars in the WORLD find themselves with a possible opportunity to play in the NBA... But even then, it's not always a guarantee that players get drafted onto a team.
Eddie Gill's story is a story of pure grit and determination. Coming out of college as the MVP of the 1999 Big East Tournament, Eddie found himself undrafted in the 2000 NBA Draft. Without letting it deter him, Eddie found himself playing through the International Basketball League and a few teams overseas.
Once the opportunity was given to him Eddie finally made it to the NBA finding himself as a league "Journey Man" playing with various teams such as the Pacers, Bucks, Trailblazers and the Supersonics. Swallowing his pride, understanding his role on these teams, along with the journey of his life made him a true embodiment of the #EverydayGSD mantra.
Listen in as we talk to Eddie about his life and what it life was like as a professional athlete.
