Going ISO - Cherokee Parks - a podcast by Locked On Podcast Network, Noah Coslov, Adam Stanco

Adam Stanco & Noah Coslov go ISO with 9-year NBA vet Cherokee Parks. They dive into the big man's remarkably journey, from starting to play the game at 14 years old to playing in the McDonald's Game with four of the Fab Five just four years later. The Duke legend explains why playing alongside Christian Laettner was difficult and how they knocked off Glenn "Big Dog" Robinson's Purdue team in their iconic NCAA Tournament matchup. He details many of the struggles he faced during his rookie season, beginning with his strange NBA Draft night. He tells classic stories about superstar teammates Kevin Garnett and Tim Duncan, plus filming the famous "Fun Police" commercial with Garnett and ending up on a No Fear tee-shirt (which Noah still owns). Cherokee also talks about the next crop of prodigies aiming for NBA stardom and how he has found personal happiness in his current role with the league's player development program.
