Greg Kite: Two-Time NBA Champion and 11 Year NBA Veteran
06/28/24 • 56 min
At 6'11 and athletic, it's no surprise that basketball was the sport of choice for Greg Kite. The suprising part of his story is how he was able to sustain such a long professional career by staying healthy at that size as he competed with some of the best players in history.
Today, we get to hear the story of Greg Kite and his journey through the NBA and beyond!
A McDonald's All-American in High School, a stud at BYU throughout his 4-year career there and the 21st overall pick in the 1983 draft to the Boston Celtics, Greg had a chance to compete alongside some of the sport's greatest stars at various levels.
Find out today what it was like competing with the likes of Danny Ainge, Larry Bird, Shaquille O'Neal and many more! We also get to hear stories of what it's like playing for the Celtics organization and how they treat their former players even today. What was it like in Orlando when that was a new organization? How did the community treat the team and players?
What are some of his favorite memories throughout his entire career. Who were some of the best players he was around? What did he learn from them? How do sports help him in life now?
What an incredible opportunity to learn from an amazing individual. I can't wait to share this episode with you all today!

Koy Blanchard: Disc Golf Through the Eyes of a Competitor AND Businessman
In 2022, I had Dallin Blanchard on the podcast to speak about the sport of Disc Golf. It was at that time that I learned just how big the Disc Golf Community really is and how cool and unique the sport itself is.
Today, on Episode 360 of the show, I'm brining on Koy Blanchard (who happens to be a younger brother of Dallin's) and we'll learn more about the sport from his eyes, which also includes not only competing in Disc Golf, but also learning the business side of the game as he's helping put together a Disc Golf Tournament for others to compete in as well.
We touch base on the topics such as Koy's favorite courses he's played on, where Koy ranks himself among his brothers (the "Blanchard Bros" basically all are really good at a lot of things and Disc Golf is one of those things), what his best 'throw' is in Disc Golf, technology in the game, the 2024 Snake River Championship (the Tournament Koy and his business partner are putting on) and much more!
If you're a Disc Golfer looking to compete in a solid tourney, checkout the 2024 Snake River Championship by going here: https://www.discgolfscene.com/tournaments/2024_Snake_River_Championship_2024
We also encourage you to follow the Facebook Group for the Snake River Championship by going here: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100090929768549
