From Pelican Hill Magazine:
The tale of Scott Brooks’ rise from small-town boy to a popular NBA coach reads like
a classic novel: Athletic, determined student – who also happens to be on the short
side – from a large family held together by a hardworking single mom finds success
in the NBA. UCI gave me a great education and a platform to play at a high level.
If it wasn’t for UC Irvine giving me an athletic scholarship, I would never have been
able to attend college.
