Episode description

Scott Hazelton's basketball experience has been nothing short of a novel, with many chapters along the way. Now the co-owner of Rivals Elite AAU, Hazelton joined LIT to talk about his journey from a young biracial kid growing up -- but never fully fitting in -- simultaneously in middle-class Medford, and working class Somerville, Mass., to high school All-American, top-ranked recruit and then fallen-star at UConn and a transfer to URI that nearly ended his career before head coach Jim Barron saved his life. He's experienced many basketball rebirths and resurrections along the way. Hazelton spoke candidly about his struggles and triumphs, how being present has been the key to finally falling fully in love with the game, and gave heaping doses of credit to those who helped make him the man he is today.
