Karim Lopez's draft story starts with Mexico, runs through New Zealand, and points toward a history-making NBA stage. In conversation with Marc J. Spears, Lopez explains why belief has always been part of his path, how his father helped him fall in love with basketball, and why the NBL became a proving ground for his game. The interview connects the personal and the professional: family support, national pride, playing against grown men, and the moment every prospect imagines when the hat, handshake, and photos become real.
