Bucket Podcast

Snow stacked along the sidewalks.
Four-degree air.
The kind of cold that settles into a city and stays there.

In this special bonus episode, Sky travels to Syracuse, New York to sit down with two of the top high school basketball players in the state — Eli Prince of Westhill and Jahzar Greene of Bishop Ludden-Grimes.
Same city. Same winter. Different rhythms.

Eli moves with steadiness — shaped by structure, patience, and a long view of the game.
Jahzar plays with urgency — forged through setbacks, ownership, and work.

Through two individual conversations — no coaches, no panels — this episode explores how environment shapes athletes differently, how honesty reveals depth, and how two players can share a map without sharing the same road.
Winter doesn’t form everyone the same way.
