🌟 Special Guest: Daniel "Booby" Gibson -- HOME | DANIEL GIBSON
Following the SkyDunk, we'll be joined by former NBA standout and Cleveland Cavaliers fan favorite, Daniel "Booby" Gibson. Known for his clutch shooting and leadership, Gibson played a key role in leading the Cavaliers to their first NBA Finals appearance in 2007. He holds the NBA Rookie-Sophomore Game record for three-pointers made and remains one of the top five 3-point shooters in Cavaliers history.
Now retired from professional play, Gibson devotes his time to mentorship, philanthropy, and his non-profit ShootersU, which develops not only great basketball players but great individuals. His passion for giving back and inspiring youth makes him the perfect speaker for an unforgettable evening.
