I’m Brandon Breeze Dawson, a storyteller, basketball Lover, and most importantly, a servant of Christ. My life has been a wild and beautiful journey—from falling in Love with basketball as a kid to chasing my dream all the way to Peru, where I had the privilege of playing professional basketball. But let me tell you, even the biggest slam dunk on the court doesn’t compare to the joy of following God’s plan for my life.

Basketball has always been more than just a game for me. I’ll never forget the first time my dad took me to a gym at four years old. The sounds of the ball bouncing, the smell of the hardwood, and the swish of the ball going through the net hooked me instantly. The gym became my second home, and I worked hard to turn my passion into a career. Playing pro ball in Peru was an incredible experience—one filled with unforgettable moments, tough lessons, and personal growth.

But while I was living my dream, God was working on my heart. He showed me that my life’s purpose wasn’t just about basketball. After a lot of prayer and soul-searching, I made the decision to leave professional basketball behind and step into His calling for me. It wasn’t easy, but it was the best decision I’ve ever made. Now, I get to use my Love for the game and my faith to inspire others and share the hope found in Jesus.

My debut book, Basketball My Teacher, Jesus My Savior, is all about how faith and sports have shaped my life. It’s filled with real stories and lessons from the court that I hope will encourage you to trust God through life’s challenges. My prayer is that it leaves you feeling inspired and ready to take on whatever’s ahead with Him by your side.
