OG King Kurt breaks down what it really takes to coach at the professional esports level — from player development and in-game strategy to mindset, preparation, and building a winning culture in a fast-evolving league. We talk about how basketball IQ translates to the sticks, the grind behind the scenes of Nets Gaming, and why esports is no longer the future — it’s the present. The conversation also dives into opportunity: how young players can turn gaming into real careers, the discipline required to stay elite, and why structure, coaching, and leadership matter just as much in esports as they do on the hardwood.
