An Athlete's Second Act
Inc.|September 2017

This is not something I planned on,"says former college hoops star Lanny Smith. "I was always as athelete." But injuries crushed his dreams just before his rookie NBA season began. His Christian faith kept him going, and an idea to marry it with athletic wear-dreamed up while he was recuperating in a hospital-gave him a thriving Houston-based company. Oh, and his investors? They include some guy named Steph Curry.
