What does it really look like to navigate travel basketball as a family — from rec league to the EYBL circuit to a Division 1 roster?
This week on Time Out, Carl Antoine sits down with Chris Desdunes — father of Chikae Desdunes, a freshman guard at Rutgers University. Chris raised a top-51 player in the country out of New Orleans, navigated the travel ball world, supported his daughter's move to DME Academy, and walked through a decommitment when coaching changes flipped her recruitment. This isn't a recruiting story. This is a PARENT story — the good, the hard, and the lessons worth passing on.
