Not In My House (A Basketball Podcast)
We have a strong love for basketball and the doors that it can open outside of the game itself. We love to give current and former players, coaches, artists, and historians their recognition and the platform they deserve to tell their story and teach our listeners about the game and applying lessons we learn from hoops to everyday life. We don't care for hot takes, we don't care for debates but we do care about giving back to the game and giving people the recognition they deserve for their hard work, dedication, their experiences and their knowledge to give our listeners and ourselves a better understanding of the game, the business, and life beyond hoops. We also like to have have fun! Any Questions? Suggestions? You can email us at Notinmyhousepodcast@gmail.com Much Love to you all! Twitter - @NOTINMYHOUSEpc Instagram- @not_in_my_house_podcast

Chris Wright: Former Georgetown Hoya & Only NBA Player With MS
Today’s conversation doesn’t get more inspirational than this. We got another Hoya on the podcast! Chris Wright joins us today to share his incredible story for an episode that we know you’ll love and appreciate.
Chris Wright was a decorated high school star from St. John’s College HS, he is the school’s all time leading scorer and went on to be a McDonald’s All-American where he won the 3pt Contest. He went on to play at Georgetown where he was a key player for some great Hoya teams and continued his career both overseas and in the NBA. Chris was diagnosed with MS while playing professionally. He became the only NBA player with MS and he shares all about his diagnosis and his inspiring journey with MS both on and off the court. Chris went from being told that that he would never play basketball again to playing for the Dallas Mavericks, making an All-FIBA Europe Cup team, Turkish League Assists leader and inspiring SO many by becoming the face for bringing awareness to MS in the NBA.
Chris was an incredible guest and we are so grateful for his time. He shared awesome stories about Georgetown, Stephen Curry, NBA Draft process, experiences overseas, Mark Cuban, Dirk, his journey living & playing professionally with MS, his podcast and MUCH more. You will learn quickly why Chris Wright is such an inspiration after listening to this one!
