Mahershala Ali Almost Took Steve Nash’s Roster Spot at Santa Clara
Long before Mahershala Ali was an award-winning actor, he was a standout hooper at Mount Eden High School in Hayward, California. On the pod, Ali discusses his basketball career, his college recruitment story, and why he committed to Saint Mary's over Santa Clara. Steve Nash also explains how Ali not choosing Santa Clara ended up being a blessing in disguise for the Canadian point guard before he was selected 13th overall by the Phoenix Suns. Presented by UNINTERRUPTED and Wondery. New episodes drop every other Tuesday. Watch Mind The Game with LeBron James and Steve Nash for NBA interviews, basketball analysis, highlights and more.
