Dad/Daughter date night šŸ’«

I was beyond excited when my mini asked me to join her for the MJ Musical at the. As a dad, moments like these mean everything. Watching your 19-year-old daughter grow up, build her own friendships, and create her own world is a beautiful thing… but it also means dad gets a little less time. That’s why I never take these moments for granted.

I’m incredibly thankful for every opportunity we still get to have our little date nights, laugh together, make memories, simply enjoy each other’s company and our love for. Time really flies, and I’m learning to cherish every chapter along the way. ā¤ļøāœØ

And after watching the musical, I truly walked away reflecting on the life and legacy of Michael Jackson. In my opinion, MJ was the most famous entertainer the world has ever seen. As I get older, I realize more and more how much pressure he carried, how pure his spirit and musical genius really were, and how his family, and people around him and even the world failed to fully appreciate the human being behind the icon while he was here. Yes, I believe he was assassinated.

The storytelling, the music, the energy, the choreography… absolutely incredible. I highly recommend everybody go see the MJ Musical. And still support the Michael movie, but I’m telling you now, the musical is waaaaaaay better. šŸ‘‘šŸŽ¤āœØ

The 2nd Annual ā€œComptalian: Yoga/Basketball Activationā€ at was a success. Every participant received a complimentary tank top and basketball shorts. We kicked off with breathwork, meditation, and yoga, led by former player and 12-year Italian pro, aka Yoga Bob. The event continued with basketball drills, shooting games, a 4-on-4 tournament, and a relaxing yin yoga session guided by former Italian player

A huge shoutout to and for opening the doors of ZonePlus when others in Italy didn’t see the vision or want to help. We’re building something truly special, and next summer will be even bigger. We’re adding massage therapists and ice baths, and we hope to see more women join the yoga sessions, pros, college athletes, along with visits from my former teammates and coaches.

This was my second year with no sponsors, no grants, all on my dime—but I believe in myself. It’s been a blessing to scale a line that fuses the two cultures that shaped me into who I am today. As an American playing basketball overseas, I was often seen only as an athlete, not an entrepreneur. After retiring 3 years ago, I channeled the energy, discipline, and achievements I gained from basketball into yoga, my for-profit, and my nonprofit. I had to change my lifestyle, mindset, and reinvent myself. This is just the beginning, I’ll be doing this all over the world for the next 20 years you can bet that. If you don’t have a plan, you become part of someone else’s plan. Stay creative!

Bob w/ his favorite yoga guru…
•
Sadhguru is the founder of the &. They operate as a ashram and yoga centre that carries out educational & spiritual activities all around the world.
•
•
Bob wants to thank for the free ticket & backstage pass. After meeting Sadhguru Bob was so excited he bought a case of his books to give out to family & friends bc sharing is caring! To work alongside the Isha Foundation would be a dream come true as Bob continues to introduce yoga/mindful practices to athletes, the city of Compton and its schools.

What if…
•
In my 20s I never liked posting my NBA pictures or sharing stories because it gave me depression and plus I was still bitter…
•
Yes, I should have had a longer career but it didn’t happen. Little did I know my overseas journey would changed my perspective about American values and learning. After the NBA I was still playing basketball, something less than 2% of the world will never do. Once I stopped caring about the 1% I made peace with my past so it didn’t ruin my future. Be grateful because it can always be worse.
