Former NBA All-Star Vin Baker has had an up and down life. Baker’s ability to persevere through those obstacles has made him a valued speaker for those seeking to learn from his journey.
The former Milwaukee Bucks forward will try to make an impact as the keynote speaker at the 10th Annual Milwaukee Fatherhood Summit on Friday. The two-day event will continue into Saturday at Destiny Youth Plaza.
Anyone is able to attend the summit for free. Attendees can preregister at www.MilwaukeeFatherhood.com.
When he made four consecutive All-Star teams in the 1990s, Baker had as much talent as anyone in the NBA. He scored over 11,000 points, but struggled with alcoholism during and after his playing career.
Despite losing many of his NBA millions due to his issues, Baker still turned his life around. He is a Starbucks management trainee and is close to completing his Divinity degree.
Baker has also worked as a volunteer high school basketball coach and is a married father of four. The story of reversing course and making a better life for his family is a message he hopes everyone can absorb.
