Meet Yannick Atanga: born in Cameroon, a basketball late-bloomer, and all-around inspiration.At 14, he picked up a basketball for the first time - and boom - his world changed. He moved to California for high school (without knowing a word of English!), played basketball and then earned a degree from Santa Clara University, all the while catching the mentor bug.Now, he's giving back big-time through Impact Basketball, a youth camp he started in Cameroon that's still going strong 7 years later.Tune in for a story that’s part hustle, part heart, and 100% Yannick—from late-night porch dreams to global impact.
