Raw, honest and uplifting, Shane’s story of perseverance in the midst of adversity will motivate and empower those ready to make the changes needed to be the best versions of themselves. In 1999, USA TODAY ranked Shane West the number 9 available point guard, and one of the top 100 high school basketball players in the country; but the allure of fast money exacerbated by a dysfunctional upbringing, led him down the wrong path.
