The Art Of Rebounding

From Harlem Globetrotter to Hollywood: Kevin Daley’s Comeback Story


Listen Later

In this heartfelt episode of The Art of Rebounding, Harold “Lefty” Williams sits down with Dr. Kevin “Special K” Daley — former Harlem Globetrotter showman, award-winning author, speaker, actor, and entrepreneur — to explore what it truly means to rebound in life.

From losing his mother at three years old to navigating the challenges of identity after basketball, Kevin shares how persistence, faith, and purpose shaped his incredible journey. He opens up about walking away from UCLA, finding his path overseas, and redefining success after his legendary career with the Globetrotters.

Kevin also reveals behind-the-scenes stories — including his unforgettable experience as Michael Jordan’s stunt double — and his transition into acting with the award-winning film Sweetwater. Through it all, he reminds listeners that attitude, accountability, and perseverance are the foundation of every comeback.

This conversation is a masterclass in resilience and reinvention — proof that no matter the setback, you were built to bounce back.
