I started late. Late bloomer. Growing up, I really wasn't just playing AU and traveling. I was just a regular kid playing outside and just doing basic stuff. I never really got introduced to it. Once I did, I was already kind of late, but I got introduced to it late when I was in high school. I played AU my 9th grade year, and I just got better once I played 15, 16, 17U and then just went from there. I feel like I could play on any other team, any. Like the Rockets or the Spurs. But this is a good team to really learn. And they always say, if you can play on a championship win, you could play for any team. When playoffs comes, LeBron literally was like, that's when. Like, it's no mistakes, it's perfect. That's when whoever's good on the team, that's when it shows, you know?

Yeah. All right, guys, Max Lewis here today. Thanks for coming on, man. Yes, sir. Not often a guest is taller than me.

How tall are you?
Interviewer (0:52)
Six. Six. Oh, wow.
Max Lewis (0:54)
Right there. Six, six, eight?
Interviewer (0:55)
Yeah. Damn. Did you hit that in high school or did you keep growing after high school?
Max Lewis (1:00)
I'll say I kept growing. Like college. I was five when I came in as a freshman. Then, like, I left at, like, 6, 7.
Interviewer (1:07)
Damn. You were still going to college, Pepper Dying, right?
Max Lewis (1:10)
Yes, sir.
Interviewer (1:10)
How many years you play there?
Max Lewis (1:12)
I did two.
Interviewer (1:13)
Okay, two. And you were out? Yeah. Was that the plan?
Max Lewis (1:17)
That was initially the plan. I wanted to leave after my first year, but I had broke my wrist. It was, like, three games left of conference, and I was. I stole the ball, went up for a dunk and, like, landed, like, right on my wrist. And I was like, gotta go back another year. So did that. And really took. Took off after.
