As a marketing executive at the NBA, he helped launch the Toronto Raptors and Vancouver Grizzlies. He worked alongside David Stern and Adam Silver. He was living the dream.
And then he walked away.
Not because he failed. Not because he was pushed out. But because the entrepreneurial itch was real, and no amount of courtside seats could scratch it.
