Michael Sweetney was the 9th player chosen in the legendary 2003 NBA Draft that produced LeBron James, Carmelo Anthony, Dwyane Wade, and Chris Bosh. After a brief career that saw him battle weight problems and depression, he sought help and has recovered to the point that he is now an assistant coach for the Yeshiva Men’s team that has reached the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Division III Tournament. He shares his story and hopes others will follow his lead and seek help instead of suffering silently.
