On this episode of the Wonbyone Podcast, Obi Emegano sits down with fellow Olympian and nine-year pro Ike Nwamu to talk about the winding road from G League dreams to overseas reality. From UNLV to Summer League with Miami, Ike opens up about chasing the NBA, bouncing between teams and countries, and what it took to finally find peace in the process.

They dive into how to build a high-performance lifestyle, the identity crisis that comes with injury, and why creative outlets like writing became a mental lifeline. For any athlete struggling to stay grounded, stay ready, or find themselves beyond the game—this one hits deep.

📍 Topics covered:

G League grind vs. overseas stability
Handling uncertainty and adapting fast
Injury, identity, and mental recovery
Daily habits that create consistency
The importance of mindset
