🚨 BREAKING: Detroit Pistons star Jaden Ivey is retiring from the NBA at age 24 to answer God's call and become a pastor.
"I felt the Lord speaking to my heart," Ivey said. "Basketball was my dream, but God has called me to leave the game and serve Him fully as a servant of the Lord."
More to come as this story develops. Prayers up for Jaden on this bold faith journey. 🙏🏾
What a powerful testimony — the NBA's loss is the Kingdom's gain.
“It sucks to be in this position, but through wins & losses, I just thank the Lord for it all. I’m a big man of faith in Jesus. Everything happens for a reason”
- UCONN C Tarris Reed Jr. after losing the National Championship vs Michigan
“The resurrection is everything. That’s like the staple of Christianity… Without the resurrection, there is no Christian…”
“[Jesus] changed everything about me… The way I talk, the way I treat other people… I’m really here to serve others”

Cade asked where he gets his aura: “I get my aura from Jesus Christ and my lord and savior, and God blessed me with parents who raised me in a way I wouldn’t trade for the world.”
Turning down D2, D3 and NAIA opportunities when you have 0 opportunities make no sense to me. You staying home instead of playing bc you didn’t go D1 is something I just can’t support. I’ll never advocate for that. Love who loves you and go play!
As a trainer, I agree with him. WITH THAT SAID….how many people are Prime James Harden? 1. at the end of the day, I think trainers can add value to a workout, but the real improvement comes from consistency and reps, whether you’re in the gym by yourself or you have a trainer advising you on things to work on, I definitely think there is some truth to what he’s saying, but having a trainer or workout guy is not a bad thing
If you’re a “unsigned senior” you need to be open to ALL LEVELS OF COLLEGE BASKETBALL!
Yes I do mean all levels!
NCAA D1
NCAA D2
NCAA D3
NAIA
NJCAA
USCAA
NCCAA
CCCAA
NWAC
Non of these are beneath you!
Go play!
At the end of the day…..I don’t care if you go D1, D2, D3, NAIA, JUCO, D9, Duke, Pork N Bean County State Community College, or anywhere in between…….
JUST GO IF YOU HAVE THE CHANCE!!!!!!!
It’s nearly 2025 and people (who probably didn’t play a college sport) are still criticizing kids for saying they have a “D3 offer” or they “Committed to a D3”
The truth is the reason you’re not getting recruited is because you’re only trying to go and talk to D1s 🤷🏾♂️
Less than 2% of athletes go D1. Meaning 98% of opportunities are at D2,D3, NAIA, JuCo levels 🏈🏀⚽️⚾️🗣️
Chase opportunities…. not a level, jersey or school name‼️
2025 prospects:
There is still plenty of time to get recruited, and offered. However, continuing to play the waiting game and thinking because you’re talented someone will find you is a MISTAKE.
Take action, be aggressive and start marketing yourself🎥#modernrecruiting
