Welcome back to the Championship Vision Basketball Podcast, where we connect coaches, leaders, innovators, and basketball people who are committed to growing the game.

Today's guest has experienced basketball from almost every possible angle.

Jefferson Mason was an All-American at Minnesota State Mankato, helped lead the Mavericks to the 2011 NCAA Division II Final Four, and was inducted into the Minnesota State Athletics Hall of Fame in 2022.

His playing career took him around the world, including stops in Germany, Romania, Luxembourg and Turkey, along with an opportunity in the NBA Development League.
