One of my best performances overseas 🇨🇱
In 2008, playing professionally in Chile’s DIMAYOR League, I scored 52 points for Provincial Llanquihue including 17 in the 4th quarter to help secure a 109–108 win.
Moments like this helped shape my journey… and now I use that same experience to develop the next generation every day.

This is our older group today at our Shoot For The Stars Clinic.
We recently started bringing our shooting machine to some of the sessions so the kids can get up more quality shots and repetitions. That’s one of the biggest things we focus on in our program — consistent reps and fundamentals.
The program continues to grow, and it’s great seeing the kids getting better every week as they put the work in.

Check out our Saturday Morning Skills Development Clinic every Saturday at Frank Brown from 10:45 AM to 12:15 PM for ages 7–9.
This is where the fundamentals, repetitions, and confidence start. It’s also where kids learn to love the game while building the right habits early.

It all starts with our philosophy in the gym. 🏀
We believe in teaching the fundamentals and staying consistent, because consistency builds confidence. That’s the foundation of everything we do in our Shoot For The Stars Basketball Academy.
Every session we focus on the small details ball handling, footwork, passing, decision making, and finishing around the basket. When young players get quality and consistent reps, the game starts to slow down for them.
Here’s a highlight from one of our Academy classes putting in work.
Proud of these young athletes and the effort they bring every time they step in the gym.

National Player of the Year & National Champion Terrance Hill Named Special Guest Coach for Auburn Nike Basketball Camp
Excited to announce that Terrance Hill will be joining us as a Special Guest Coach on May 26th for our 1st Nike Basketball Camp here in Auburn.
Terrance and I battled against each other for two years in the Peach Belt Conference, one of the strongest conferences in NCAA Division II basketball. During that time I was playing at Columbus State University and he was leading the way at Kennesaw State University.
My team won the 2003 Peach Belt Conference Tournament Championship, and the following year in 2004 Terrance and his team beat us in the championship game and went on to win the National Championship that same season. Terrance was also named National Player of the Year and is now a Kennesaw State Hall of Fame inductee.
Our basketball journeys didn’t stop there. We also had the opportunity to compete professionally overseas in countries like Chile.
Today Terrance continues giving back to the game through his training company Terrence Hill Basketball LLC, mentoring and developing the next generation of athletes.
Our goal is to recruit the best coaching staff and mentors possible and give our youth an unforgettable experience at our first Nike Basketball Camp in Auburn.

Back in 2024, I had the opportunity to reconnect with my former teammate and good friend Sam Jones, now a Nike Academy Director. We both retired from the game and are now focused on giving back to the youth by teaching what we learned as professionals.
He invited me to coach at his Nike Camp in Fort Collins, where I also had the chance to meet and learn from Lethal Shooter, former pro and current NBA trainer. That experience opened my eyes to the true Nike camp standard.
Now we’re bringing that same Nike atmosphere to Auburn, AL, May 26th–29th for my first Nike Camp as Director. I’m building a strong coaching staff to give our kids a first-class experience.
Big shoutout to Sam @coach21jones and @lethalshooter for the guidance and support.

We’re excited to announce Coach Anthony Edwards, an Alabama native and AHSAA Hall of Fame Class of 2026 inductee, as Coach #1 for our first-ever Nike Basketball Camp in Auburn.
Coach Edwards is one of the most respected coaches in the state, finishing his career with 500+ wins, multiple Coach of the Year honors, and a legacy built on discipline, leadership, and developing young people the right way.
He was also one of the best basketball players to come out of Beauregard, which makes this moment even more special for our local community. Growing up around Beauregard basketball, I had the chance to watch him play and compete, and he was one of those players I looked up to and was inspired by. Having him now pour back into the next generation is full circle.
Having a coach of this caliber involved sets the standard for what this camp represents excellence, character, and opportunity.
We’re proud to bring this level of leadership to Auburn.
This is just the beginning.

Great Valentine’s date night with my princess Lucy.
Took her to the daddy-daughter event at Chick-fil-A Auburn Mall and we had a great time. These moments are priceless!
Appreciate everyone who put this event together. We’re looking forward to coming back next year. @cfaauburnmall
Also found my new favorite Chic-fil-A meal chicken fingers with mac & cheese and a Sunjoy.
Make sure to check out the Chick-fil-A at the Auburn Mall.

I couldn’t have asked for a better way to close out the year than having the legend Coach William Williams come speak to our campers as we Finished Strong.
Coach Williams taught me the game and how to be successful, and it was truly a blessing to have him pour into our kids today. They listened, learned, and took so much from his message.
A huge thank you to Coach Williams, all of our parents, campers, and the entire community for making this camp special.
Happy New Year’s Eve, and wishing everyone nothing but the best in the year ahead. 💙🏀

Day 2 Recap 🙌🏾
We were blessed to have Pastor Coach Jeremy Napier, team chaplain and character coach for the Auburn Tigers men’s basketball, speak to our campers today. He was joined by Emeka Opurum, one of Auburn’s top players.
They shared a powerful message using Moses and the staff, reminding our kids that success isn’t about being the biggest or most talented it’s about faith, consistency, and using the fundamentals you already have.
Thankful for leaders who continue to pour into our youth. This is bigger than basketball. 💙🏀
