Episode Notes

Jack is currently a Forward for the Denver Nuggets. He was a 3-Star prospect out of Australia who went on to play 4 years at Duke. Surrounded by young stars each season in college, he worked his way into becoming a consistent starter and 2-time captain until his Senior year was cut short in 2020 due to the COVID Pandemic. Just 2 seasons into his professional career in the National Basketball League in his home country, he suffered a potentially career-ending torn Achilles tendon. With relentless persistence and self-belief, Jack fought his way back from injury not only to return to being one of the best players in the NBL, but back onto US soil as an NBA player that is now participating in the NBA Finals in his 1st season!Key topic: Controlling the controllable.
