I always stress the importance of having a video for self-promotion and getting your name out there. Without video, how can any professional team trust that you can do the job? Recently, I received an email from a member of the Basketball Overseas Newsletter that included his highlight film. Once I opened the Youtube video, everything just stood out.

Before I headed to play basketball overseas in 1999, I had some college teammates and friends from outside the US playing at the same school.
