Todd Ramasar on What Makes an NBA Player, Building a Global Agency
Life Sports Founder & CEO Todd Ramasar joins Jacob Myers on the League Him podcast for an insightful dialogue on what it takes to be an NBA player in 2025. We dive into Todd’s basketball roots at UCLA, the lessons he picked up from industry giants early on, and his evolution into an entrepreneur who’s negotiated over a billion dollars in contracts.
We also get into team-building principles and share stories from the journeys of his clients — from Pascal Siakam’s rise from mid-major sleeper to max-contract star, to the paths of Andrew Nembhard, Cedric Coward, Nique Clifford, and Kevon Looney.
