Magic Johnson is one of the greatest Lakers NBA players of all time. But what I respect far more than anything Magic’s ever done on the court is how he was able to transform himself post-career. Johnson has announced he is launching an orignal programming cable network on Comcast this summer named Aspire.
Johnson is partnering with GMC, owner of the Gospel Music Channel.
I wish more players would take advantage of the knowledge Magic has about transitioning post-career or even in looking for healthy investments while they’re still playing. 20 years after being forced into early retirement Magic has beat the odds on so many levels. Aspire was the perfect choice to name the network.
