But a serious foot injury threatened to derail his season. In this episode, Aidoo opens up about the grueling recovery process, the doubts he faced, and how he’s found his rhythm at the perfect time. Plus, he shares why he chose to play for Coach Cal, the team’s late-season surge, what to expect from Boogie Fland’s return, as well as his extensive cologne collection.
