During his 21 seasons in the NBA, Robert Parish quietly carved a name for himself alongside celtics legends Larry Bird and Kevin McHale. He cemented his career as a steady, stable force who just kept winning.

But even as a four-time NBA champion, one of Robert’s most memorable moments came off the court — when he graduated from college and received a hug from his dad for the first time. 

This week, we sit down with “The Chief” to learn how he went from barely being able to dribble to becoming a Hall of Famer. Listen wherever you get the Sports in America podcast.
