  • Like I’m Louuuuuu Will! The legendary three-time Sixth Man of the Year pulls up on Knuckleheads to talk about his unique basketball journey. A story to inspire all the young hoopers out there!

He went from high school straight to the league, spending his rookie year learning from Allen Iverson in Philly. Seventeen seasons, six teams, and three Sixth Man Awards later, Lou Will is still a player with more to give to the game. Tune in!

    Darius is a smooth interviewer. When he ask questions, it doesn’t sound like he’s giving an interview. It just sounds like he’s having a dope conversation with his homie.
