Larry O’Bannon Jr. knew early that he didn’t want to be one of the many athletes who struggle to find their footing after retirement—so he was intentional about planning ahead.
In this episode of The 5th Quarter Podcast, Larry shares how lessons learned as a Louisville Cardinal and long-time professional overseas helped guide his transition into life after basketball.
We talk about preparing for what comes next, staying resilient through uncertainty, and building a new career without losing your identity.
In this episode:
- Planning for life after basketball while still playing
- Lessons from Coach Rick Pitino that carried beyond the court
- Playing professionally overseas and adapting to new cultures
- Transitioning into investing, coaching, broadcasting, and podcasting
- Redefining success after the final buzzer
