Heat Stories: "Forever Man" with Brian Grant

5R75 -- In the latest edition of our "Heat Stories" series, Ethan and Chris speak to Brian Grant, who played in the NBA from 1994 to 2006, including 2000 to 2004 with the Miami Heat. The candid conversation starts with Grant's upbringing in Ohio and his breakout at Xavier University; continues with his drafting to Sacramento and signing in Portland; and covers his recruitment by Pat Riley to join the Heat. It closes with his diagnosis with early-onset Parkinson's Disease, his friendships with Michael J. Fox and the Ali family, Pat Riley dubbing him a "Forever Man" at his Shake It 'til We Make It event, and his work toward a cure for the disease with the Brian Grant Foundation.
