Speaker Bio
World Champion and NBA draft lottery pick, Channing Frye, had an illustrious 14-year career in the National Basketball Association. He was drafted 8th overall by the New York Knicks, where he earned a spot on the NBA Rookie First Team. After a brief stint with the Portland Trail Blazers, Frye joined the Phoenix Suns where he ranked top 5 in three-point field goals made before making his way to Cleveland where his shooting and leadership were integral factors to the Cavaliers’ Championship run. Today, Channing is the lead analyst for Turner Sports. He also hosts his own podcast, Road Trippin’, with good friends Richard Jefferson, Allie Clifton, and Kendrick Perkins. Beyond basketball, Channing started his own wine label with fellow Champion, Kevin Love, called Chosen Family Wines, where he looks to further diversify the industry and collaborate with other winemakers around the world.
