Hoop Dreams: P's Younger Brother’s Journey to College Ball
Description
Another special episode! Pierre is joined by his Pops Tyson Breland (first ever T'd Up guest reappearance) as well as his brother EJ Breeland.
EJ is about to start his next chapter at DII Pittsburgh State, where he’ll suit up for the Gorillas and continue his college basketball journey. In this episode, the three dive into EJ’s hoops story — from his early days learning the game to becoming a high school standout — and reflect on how their father’s lessons in hard work, discipline, and character shaped both the man and the player he is today.
