It brings me great pleasure to publish an Interview with the Agent piece about Austin Walton. Not only is he a driven, young individual in the sports agent business, he is a former intern and independent contractor at Dynasty Athlete Representation. It has been fun for me to watch his rise in the business of basketball. I hope […]

First, I want to apologize for the delay in blogs and topics. We had a great NBA Pre-Draft Class here at IMG Academies. Doubling business is good, but I guess I forgot about the double work part. The initial set of blogs brought both praise and backlash from varying fields. “Trainer” can have so many […]
Last week, I wrote about Kris Humphries, currently a power forward playing for the New Jersey Nets, firing sports agent Dan Fegan of Lagardère Unlimited and hiring Marc Cornstein of Pinnacle Management. Cornstein has a solid group of clients (including Samuel Dalembert, Darko Milicic, Beno Udrih, and Nenad Krstic), but it pales in comparison to Fegan’s list, which contains roughly 20 […]
I am totally embracing all of the Miami Heat trash talk, so if you want to get in on the action, feel free to Tweet Me your best diss about my hometown team. I am still convinced that the Heat win the series in seven. Dynasty Athlete Representation had a couple of players drafted this […]
Really tough loss for the Miami Heat last night. Chris Bosh is not living up to his role as part of “The Big Three” thus far in the 2011 NBA Finals. Let’s see if the Heat are able to take at least one away from the Mavericks in Dallas. The 2011 MLB Draft starts in […]

I will be publishing my review of Marc’s “Go Pro Like a Pro” (discussed in this post) in the near future. Needless to say, it is a very informative booklet for athletes to read. “The direction in which education starts a […]
This wrap-up is coming to you live from the Sports Lawyers Association’s Annual Conference in Washington D.C. I will actually be leaving D.C. tonight to head back to Florida and attend a wedding on Saturday (the conference goes through Saturday). Who do you think the Cleveland Cavaliers will take with the #1 and #4 overall […]
Isaiah Thomas has officially signed with Dan Fegan and Byron Irvin of Lagardere Unlimited. The news was first reported yesterday by Ryan Feldman of The Hoops Report. Fegan is also representing talented Brazilian basketball player Lucas Nogueira, while Irvin is representing Jacob Pullen of Kansas State, who may end up going undrafted. Thomas ran the […]
Brandon Knight surprised a lot of people when he declared that he would keep his name in the 2011 NBA Draft. Knight is a very smart, talented basketball player, but many believe there is still a lot of room for Knight to develop as a true point guard. Even with that in mind, Knight is […]
Congratulations to the Miami Heat on getting one step closer to the NBA Finals. That was quite a series against the Celtics. The 2011 MLB Draft is quickly approaching. No real news on the NFL Lockout front; just a lot of continued speculation as to what will transpire in the courts. The NBA Draft is […]
