We had the pleasure of having professional basketball player, former Santa Clara Alum and Minnesota’s own Raymond Cowels on the show with us to talk about his basketball journey. Ray discusses what it was like to play on arguably the greatest high school basketball team Minnesota has ever seen, the 5 starters on that team were D1 athletes: Raymond Cowels (Santa Clara), Royce White (Minnesota, Iowa State), Marcus Williams (NDSU Football), Mike Broghammer (Notre Dame) and Trent Lockett (Arizona State). How he honed in his shooting in college becoming a 1,000 point scorer. And then the trials and tribulations of going pro. Being drafted in the D-League, playing with the Memphis Grizzlies in the summer league. Traveling the world playing basketball overseas. If there is one word I could use to describe Raymond Cowels, it would be resilient. I hope he comes back on the show in the future because I know he has a lot of stories that he still hasn’t told! A must listen!
