Wilton sat down with Thomas "Snacks" Lee, a former player and student manager of the Jackson State University men's basketball team and a 2020 ESPN ESPY Award winner.

For those who may not remember, Snacks knocked down the biggest three pointer of his life in a JSU victory versus Arkansas Pine Bluff on March 2 that led him to become a virals sensation -- landing him all over the media in places such as ABC's Good Morning America, TMZ Sports, The Athletic, The Washington Post, The Undefeated, Pardon My Take, ESPN as well as Pardon The Interruption, The Dan Le Batard and Around the Horn.

But for Snacks, the goal was not to become famous or to become a social media star. It was his way of living out his dream but more importantly... using his platform to serve as an example that dreams can come true and that anything is possible.

Sit back and get ready to listen as he discusses his love for basketball, the name "Snacks" his love for music, his desire to give back to the community and more.
