In remembrance of my brother Chris Costello, I try to approach every day with the mantra of “Care More & Try Harder.” When you realize that life grants you the privilege of doing that every day, your impact becomes greater #GoDeacs🎩

THIS is the energy you need as an Assistant Coach

Can never be an energy vampire in that role… there’s no time to do anything but get better

Love it

My hands were steadier than my heart. Had the honor of hooding my son at his @WakeForest Master’s graduation today. My Wake Forest. 30+ years as a student, trustee, and a fiduciary. There is something profound about watching an institution you love become meaningful to someone you love more. #GoDeacs 🖤🟡

Rest in Peace, Brandon Clarke. Always had so much respect for how hard that young man played. May he rest easy 🙏🏻

Jamal Shead is my favorite player in the NBA

Respect and Love, Duncan 🙏🏻

[Malika Andrews @malika_andrews]

Duncan Robinson’s love of basketball started with his big brother, Eli. But when Eli got older, he began to struggle.

It takes incredible strength to share a story like this. Thank you, Duncan, for your vulnerability. Well done @mcten. I know this hit close to home.

The Washington Wizards plan to promote G League Capital City Go-Go head coach Cody Toppert to an assistant coach on head coach Brian Keefe’s staff for next season, @MikeAScotto reports.

The organization has given Toppert tons of credit in regards to their player development.

My son did not land on 3rd base. He was a manager for 4 years, a GA for 2 years, and a video coordinator for 6 years. He has more experience than I did when I got my 1st Asst D1 job at Idaho. He is working for my former Asst who got his 1st shot as HC at 53. Miss me with this.

[Steve Forbes @ForbesWakeHoops]

Congrats son! Your mom and I are very proud of you. Having you beside me the past 11 years has been the greatest gift any father/coach could ever have. Watching you grow from being a Manager, GA, Video Cooridnator/Asst has been amazing. I will miss seeing you every day. Love You!
