Shawnelle Scott: I'm making it to the NBA
He played at All Hallows High School for legendary CHSAA coach John Carey (https://www.nybasketballhalloffame.com/john-carey). As a young baller making his way he got advice from a slew of area greats, like Adrian "Red" Autry (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adrian_Autry), that helped him find the best path for him to learn the game. That path led him to St. Johns and ultimately to achieve his dream of playing in the NBA. Through his travels he picked up some quality nuggets from Carey, Lou Carnesecca (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lou_Carnesecca)and one of the greatest NBA coaches of all time Greg Popovich (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregg_Popovich).
