Find Your Greatness: Jack McClinton

No doubt you’re familiar with the Nike “Find Your Greatness” campaign that ran during the Olympics?

On Tuesday, this one-off independent version of a “Find Your Greatness” installment hit YouTube, starring noted sniper Jack McClinton. The video is really, really well done, encapsulating the ups and downs of Jack’s basketball journey in two mesmerizing minutes.

We see McClinton go from starring at the University of Miami to realizing his basketball dreams by being selected in the second round of the NBA Draft by the San Antonio Spurs, to his current “detour” playing pro ball in Europe. The whole thing is bookended by gritty training montages of McClinton working every day to get back to the NBA.

Pretty awesome stuff:
