Navigating the Pressures of a Warrior 

Alvin Attles, retired NBA player and iconic coach of the Golden State Warriors, grew up in a predominantly Jewish high school in New Jersey. Attles recognized the importance of education through support and encouragement from his high school basketball coach, leading him to graduate with a scholarship to North Carolina A&T State University. Motivated by sports legends Muhammad Ali, Wilt Chamberlain and Vince Miller, Attles navigated the demands of playing for a professional team, and ultimately became coach of the Golden State Warriors.
