Proud to have been able to help out Rockhampton Youth Justice‘s Transition 2 Success program by providing free basketball clinics to their participants. Was a honour to spend time with the young people from my hometown who are working to get on a good track.

Episode 4 of the Bigger Than This Pod! Olu Paynter discusses the unique opportunities he has to help Toronto youth through his involvement with @MLSELaunchPad, his focus on helping young people navigate a changing social climate, and why Toronto celebrates its own so well!

Akok Machar is currently looking for a D2 opportunity.
Quite frankly, I think he'd be a steal at that level. Up to 6'7 now with a giant wingspan, super disruptive defender and legitimate guard handles.
Any inquiries, reach out via DM.
