Monetizing Sports Fame with Mason Plumle...

Gary Vaynerchuk
About this episode

On today's episode of the podcast, I'm sharing a conversation I had back in 2017 with professional basketball player Mason Plumlee. We discuss his unwavering passion for basketball, his interests outside the court including real estate, the unpredictability of professional sports trades, the challenges student-athletes face when trying to monetize themselves, and the importance of building a fan base during one's athletic career. We also delve into the financial challenges athletes face, especially when they want to help others. This episode is perfect for sports enthusiasts, budding athletes, and anyone interested in the intersection of sports and business.
