Jalen Brunson reveals the Christmas Day a teenage him met Kobe Bryant in a United Center hallway and the line he's never forgotten

Brunson: "I just remember him walking in the hallway. As a teenager, you're trying to keep your cool. So I said hi, shook his hand."

Brunson: "Kobe said something that to this day I will never forget. He said, 'Why work if you don't want to be the best?' That quote will sit with me forever."

Brunson: "He had these red high-top Kobe nines, the Christmas nines, and the shoes just kind of fell into my hand. He's like, 'Here you go. These for you.'"

Brunson: "When I got in the car to go home, I looked at it and I was like, 'Oh, I'm definitely wearing these.'"

Vic Schaefer has always been vocal about his distaste towards playing on Sundays

This week Texas is playing on Monday so coach and some players were able to attend church today

"I went to church this morning, I know I had some of my team was in church this morning. It's the one thing I just despise about being in this league is playing on Sundays...We're taking something out of their life that could be very meaningful for them and their development, both socially and emotionally"

[Relatable with Allie Beth Stuckey @RelatablewABS]

Christian singer Matthew West shared a powerful story about taking his daughter to camp. During an exercise, the daughters were blindfolded and the dads were told to guide them through the woods after repeating three instructions: I will never leave you. You can ask me anything. And only listen for my voice.

At first, he could guide her easily. Then the counselors signaled for him to remove his hand. He was no longer allowed to speak unless his daughter remembered she could ask him anything. Eventually, they got off track on their hike and a counselor quietly led her into a ditch without her realizing it.

After standing there blindfolded and confused, she finally asked, “Dad, are you there?”

Matthew said he teared up as he answered, “Yeah. I’m here.”

This moment reminded him how often we forget the same truths about God: that He never leaves us, we can ask Him anything, and we need to listen for His voice.

Dawn Staley shares a coaching and parenting truth that most people get wrong.

"I'm very different than your parents because your parents don't want you to fail, and they don't want you to be uncomfortable."

You can't steal the struggle for others.

"They do everything in their power to make sure you don't feel the pain that they felt growing up. And it's probably the biggest mistake because they're gonna fail."

Love isn't protecting someone from struggle - it's preparing them for it.

"I tell them, 'I love you enough to allow you to fail.' I do."

"I love you enough to allow you to hurt. I love you enough for you to have a bad game or bad month or even a bad season."

You can't grow without failures, mistakes, and setbacks. That's where true growth happens.

"And that's not just basketball, that's just anything. You're gonna have bad days that you're gonna have to just fight."

The greatest gift you can give someone isn't comfort. It's the ability to handle discomfort.

Optimize for resilience, not comfort. That's what prepares them for anything.

Before Audi Crooks made a free throw to put Iowa State up four, she was in tears at the free throw line.

The Cy-Hawk game makes Audi think of her late father. She looked to Bill Fennelly, who lost his father the day of a Cy-Hawk game six years ago.

An emotional win for both.
