- In this episode of The 5th Quarter Podcast, Sandy Adams sits down with former NBA point guard and current Memphis Grizzlies color commentator Brevin Knight to talk about grit, belief, and finding your second act.
Brevin opens up about growing up with a chip on his shoulder, being overlooked in high school recruiting, and how a chance viewing by Stanford changed everything. His story is one of relentless confidence and quiet resilience.
In this episode:
- Growing up in New Jersey with something to prove
- How Stanford found him by chance
- Belief that fueled his rise to a 1st round NBA draft pick
- Navigating his rookie year in Cleveland
- Life after the league and finding purpose behind the mic
Now a trusted voice courtside in Memphis, Brevin reflects on what it means to pivot, build a new lane, and keep showing up long after the final buzzer.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist
It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
