5 countries in the last 10 days is CRAZY! 🌎🏀 The love from our fans throughout South America has been incredible! Now it’s time to bring some smiles, laughter, and joy to the amazing people of Venezuela! 🇻🇪

20 years with the Harlem Globetrotters and I’m still blessed! 🙏🏽

Heartbroken to hear about the passing of the legendary Geese Ausbie. A true Harlem Globetrotter icon, but an even greater human being. Geese was an amazing mentor and friend who truly inspired me, not only through what he accomplished on the basketball court, but how he lived! 🙏🏽

Yeah, I was TRIPPIN’!!! 😂I let my players talk me into going to see wild capybaras in Argentina! 🇦🇷 Never thought I’d be out here looking for the world’s largest rodents in their natural habitat! 😂 Crazy experience, but another unforgettable adventure! 🌎 #harlemglobetrotters

Woke up feeling INSPIRED! 🙌🏾 The people have spoken! People are tired of the hate, the division, the lack of empathy, the cruelty, and the greed. My timeline was filled with people exercising their right to vote, bringing their families along, and making their voices heard!

[Chris Franklin @chrishandles]

BLESSED beyond words to see this vision becoming a reality! 🙏🏾🏡

A lot that sat vacant for 25 years is being transformed into homes that families will one day OWN, not just rent! Even more special, they’re being built by people from our own community!

TO GOD BE THE GLORY! 🙌🏾❤️

Little Nevada out here looking like a Harlem Globetrotter with those moves! ⚽🏀🔥

This young man has some incredible talent! His skills, creativity, and confidence at such a young age are amazing to watch. I’d love to invite Nevada and his family to a trotter game! Keep shining

One of my favorite parts of being a Harlem Globetrotter has always been serving as an Ambassador of Goodwill. We are blessed to travel the world, but the greatest reward is having the opportunity to make a difference and leave the world a little better than we found it. 🙏🏽

[Chris Franklin @chrishandles]

Blessed to continue seeing the world and doing what I love! 🌎✈️ After a 10 hour flight, we’ve arrived in Chile to kick off our South American tour! 🇨🇱🏀 Almost 20 years with the Harlem Globetrotters, and I guess I’ve finally earned that first class seat! 😂💺 Truly blessed! 🙏🏽

It was truly an honor having my little buddy Parker on the bench with us at our game here in Alaska. ❤️🏀

Parker has an incredible story of courage and survival. After a tragic boating accident that claimed the lives of his brother and cousin, he survived after 3 days! 🙏🏽

[Chris Franklin @chrishandles]

Never a dull moment with the fam, @hammer31! 🌎🙌🏽 Truly blessed to travel the world, experience different cultures, and appreciate its incredible history and beauty. Chichén Itzá was on my bucket list, and now I’ve visited 5 Wonders of the World! #harlemglobetrotters

[Chris Franklin @chrishandles]

Another first for me! My first time swimming in a cenote, and what an incredible experience! 160 feet deep, with water so crystal clear and refreshing. Life is all about embracing new experiences, exploring the world, and appreciating the beauty around us. #harlemglobetrotters
