Personal 

Played varsity basketball and track in high school...Was a three-time Missouri State high school champion...Prefers to compete in the U.S. because of the shorter travel times, familiar culture, and his hope to make the sport more popular in the States...Has two sons, Braylon and Amar’e, and one daughter, Mykah..His high school named the track team’s season opening meet after him.
