Brandon Roy is known as one of the best basketball players to come out of the
City of Seattle.
Brandon excelling to the
NBA wasn't just a result of his talent though.
Older players from Seattle like
Jason Terry mentored him on and off the court growing up. This is why he and other
NBA players from Seattle continue foster a family atmosphere and to give back to the younger players in his community.
Seattle, WA has always been known to have a basketball brotherhood, where NBA players like
Jamal Crawford and Brandon Roy mentor up & coming talent. But how did this "brotherhood" start? Devin
Williams (Shift Team HQ) goes up to the
Pacific Northwest to learn more about this tight knit town.
Make sure to check out “Heart of the City | Seattle” on Sunday,
August 16th.
“Heart of the City” is a documentary web series that tells the story of 6
North American cities through the lens of basketball. Each episode focuses on a different city and throws the viewer into the middle of the hoops scene. Every journey needs a guide and ours is Devin Williams of Shift Team HQ. Devin is a trainer, a former player, and a student of the game.
Throughout the series, Devin watches up-and-coming local players try to become the city’s best and spends time in the gym with top trainers and coaches.
But that’s not it
... We also dive deeper into the day-to-day lives of the characters who define the game in their city. We see what their lives look like. Where they come from. Where they’re going. What drives them.
It’s a ground-level, slice of life approach that, at the end of an episode, is both a pulse-taking of each city’s basketball culture, but also a portrait of that city itself.
