Leigh Ellis

Call to ARMS with Nikko Ramos

Travel the world playing basketball.
To most of us, that's the dream. To Leigh Ellis, that's his new life mission.
The veteran broadcaster pauses his Hoops World Tour of 20 pickup games in 20 cities in 20 countries to hop on the pod! Leigh, best known as one of the members of the No Dunks crew aka The Starters aka The Basketball Jones, is on a quest to tour the planet celebrating the unifying spirit of the game.
On this episode, he details his journey so far, how and when he'll make it to Manila (WE'RE WORKING ON IT!!), and also gives us his expert insights into what has been an eventful NBA Offseason.
We talk about the Nuggets winning it all, Wemby, Scoot, load management, longevity in the league and so much more.
Also worth noting, Leigh goes on an all time monologue talking about self-care, the challenges that basketball lifers face and how he's able to change his entire career on a dime, pursue a dream, inspire the basketball world and still be a breakfast-cooking, bedtime-book-reading MVP Dad. You shouldn't miss it.
