Not holding back in any areas, this conversation journeys a young boy from Liberty City and how he beat the odds and turned his opportunities into a two decade long career embracing his role on the Heat and continuously finding ways to benefit his teammates. Winning three championship titles with the Heat, Udonis has played with some of the game’s best players from Lebron to D Wade to Shaq to Chris Bosh to Ray Allen to many more and attributes his long lasting career to the relationships he sustained over time and his endless work ethic. As the guys dive into his childhood and early playing years, UD reveals the pain he felt losing his mother, who he just recently reunited with, and how the loss of his father led him down a different path and approach of opening up to people and asking for help when he needed it. He stressed the importance of finding balance and how his three rings mean the world to him but he’s most proud of his work giving back in the community. As the OG of the league, UD shares his thoughts on this year’s NBA MVP, which he feels should be Joel Embiid or Giannis, as they are above and beyond on the court. Learn more about your ad choices.
