NBA Legend Dee Brown on Information, Motivation and Inspiration

Dee Brown was a 12-year NBA legend and member on the 1990’s Boston Celtics all decade team.

While so many young kids dream of the NBA, Dee Brown just wanted to use basketball to get a free college education. By creating a process, locking in and having no fear of failing, he found himself as the 19th overall pick by the Boston Celtics in 1990. Having the opportunity to play alongside legends like Larry Bird, he learned how to focus on solutions vs successes, apply mindfulness to sport and the power of information, motivation and inspiration.

By mastering these concepts, he was also able to build a level of confidence and trust in himself to make up an iconic dunk on the spot that was memorialized and recreated years later. Through his experiences as a player, coach, parent and now an administrator at Jacksonville U, Dee Brown shares the “B principles” that are necessary for a championship culture in sports, school and life.
