  • Summary

  • Brad Daugherty is one of the most unique individuals in basketball history. He was one of the best big men ever to play at the University of North Carolina for coach Dean Smith. He was the #1 overall pick in the 1986 NBA Draft, ahead of his good friend the late Len Bias who went #2. His NBA career was on a Hall of Fame trajectory, with 5 All Star appearances in his first 7 seasons. But at the age of 28 he was forced to retire due to severe back injuries. As a lifelong auto racing fan, he became a NASCAR team owner in his early 30's and was a successful businessman and broadcaster along the way for ESPN and currently NBC. As perhaps the highest profile African American in the NASCAR world, he has spoken out against the display of the confederate flag and against all forms of discrimination. Find out how Brad Daugherty's unique journey has shaped in the new edition of "Pure Thoughts."
