Welcome to another engaging episode of the Bout That Life Podcast, hosted by Coach C. Collins. From the vibrant YBA Phenix Fitness 24-7 Basketball Facility in Rocklin, California, Coach Collins dives deep into conversations about basketball, life, and everything in between.

In this episode, Coach C. Collins sits down with Fred Wells, the father of NBA player Jalen Wells, to discuss the complexities and decisions involved in navigating youth basketball and guiding young athletes towards success.

Fred Wells shares his personal experiences and offers advice for parents aiming to support their children's basketball dreams. From discussing the impact of AAU basketball and high school decisions to understanding the importance of character and work ethic, Fred provides a comprehensive overview of what it takes to succeed in the competitive world of basketball. The conversation also explores Jalen Wells' journey from high school to the NBA, including the pivotal moments and decisions that shaped his path.

The episode emphasizes the importance of creating supportive environments and making informed choices in the youth basketball landscape. Tune in to gain valuable perspectives and practical advice from those who have successfully navigated the sports world.

This is an episode that parents will definitely hear from the real side of things and be very shocked at the things said, but how can you argue with a man who has a son in the NBA about to potentially be rookie of the year?
