On this episode of the Won by One Podcast, Obi Emegano sits down with pro hooper and overseas vet Baylee Steele to talk about what it really takes to chase a dream that doesn’t come easy. From picking up basketball as a 16-year-old to grinding his way through JUCO, four different colleges, and eventually landing in the CBA—Baylee’s journey is a blueprint in betting on yourself.
