Germaine Roebuck Jr: Professional Basketball Player Teaches Importance of Betting On Yourself
Manage episode 406596581 series 3291805
Many may look at Germaine Roebuck Jr. (Buck) as a professional basketball player and think "oh, he's always been good at ball..." Well let me tell you (or better yet, why don't you let Buck tell you), that this most certainly was NOT the case.
Buck rarely saw the floor in high school, but he kept working. He believed in himself and in his own abilities. He found his way to a college program and continued to work. Something many athletes in today's world don't want to do. When they don't see the results immediately, they end up giving up, rather than betting on themselves and trusting the process.
Buck KEPT WORKING!! He found himself improving in every place he played. Not every place was a perfect scenario for him, but he kept working.
After college he ended up getting an opportunity to play at the professional level overseas. He continued to work (noticing a theme here?)
Today you'll get to hear of his story and the lessons he's learned along the way. We'll also learn about his playing time in the BAL (Basketball Africa League) and how the talent level was over there.
At the time of this recording, Buck is recovering from an Achilles Injury that he sustained in the off-season. He's currently putting in work to recover and get back on the court fully healthy to continue his career and his passion!
Tap in today and learn all about it. And make sure to give Buck a follow on social media so you can watch the rest of his journey along the way!
Also, major shoutout to my friend Keshawn Liggins for the assist with this interview. He's the one who connected us both. If you'd like to hear my interview with Keshawn, you can do so by going to this link here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/6TzkHtYlRGRoVcDy5bT02N?si=S5G2YrHkRGiyLdCV8zzEOw
