John Roberson

Basketball has been a focal point in John Roberson's life for years, ever since the tender age of three when he would watch with curious eyes as his dad played at the park.  He grew up watching guys like Allen Iverson and Kobe Bryant and then he himself became a highly sought after college prospect, so much so that legendary coach Bobby Knight would take interest.  After a home visit from Coach Knight, John had made up his mind, Texas Tech it was.  A Journalism degree in hand, John started his overseas career after graduation, finding himself playing in far away places like Slovenia, Ecuador, Switzerland, Sweden, Hungary, France, Russia, Australia, Turkey and Spain. Hard work, respect for the game and a strong faith have kept John focused, motivated, employed and happy throughout the past decade. Ten years in and he's still going strong.
