One of my favorite events of the summer today: The John Lucas Golf Classic.
T.J. Ford, D.J. Augustin, Ryan Hollins and Lionel Hollins among the many NBA alumni here. This year celebrates a special anniversary for Lucas. He is now 40 years sober.
I wrote about John and his more than 50 years in basketball for @SInow in 2021.
Few, if any, have touched as many lives across the sport in the last half-century.
“I consider myself an elder of the NBA family. I like to think I’m one of the gatekeepers of the game.”

So excited about all the sponsors and support staff for making this event possible. To all the golfers today get there early and have lots of fun and remember no tampering with the scores. Enjoy!
The golf and the donations today is about the youth and their physical and mental health today at Memorial Park. Thanks to the Houston Parks and Recreation and our joint effort to grow healthy lifestyles.
Never let anyone’s doubt of your ability marginalize the blood, sweat, and tears you put into your craft. You’ve grown to your stature from the work you put in not because of a popularity contest
