#12 “Bogues”:

Andrew Bogut doesn’t need much introduction for all sports fans. He grew up in Melbourne, went on to play for the AIS before signing a letter of intent for the University of Utah and becoming the #1 pick in 2005’s NBA Draft after his sophomore year. Andrew had a phenomenal career not only in the NBA where he became a NBA champ in 2015 with the Golden State Warriors but also with the Boomers when competing for the Australian National Team in the Olympics in 2004, 2008 & 2016 as well as plenty of other international competitions.

A success story of its own kind that he shared with me on this episode. Andrew also has his own podcast called “Rogue Bogues” where you can hear not only his life’s journey in the ‘My Journey’ category but also various other topics.
On this episode we talked about his upbringing in Australia by two immigrant parents, the struggles he faced as a young kid and how that prepared him for his career. We touched on his value system, the importance of mentorship throughout his career, the social media use today as well as various other topics. Listen to the end to hear his Rick Majerus stories as well as other impromptu chit-chat.
