<p>In this episode of Unguarded, we sit down with pro overseas veteran Skylar Spencer, whose journey through more than 10 countries has shown him every side of the game. From going undrafted to navigating the uncertainty of rookie-year life overseas.</p><p>The conversation dives into the realities athletes face behind the scenes: getting cut, changing representation, dealing with misinformation before signing contracts, and adapting to life in unfamiliar environments far from home. Skylar also reflects on playing in one of the world’s most dangerous countries, building a support system overseas, and the importance of keeping the right people close when everything around you feels temporary.</p><p>Beyond basketball, we talk about content creation, identity outside the game, and how modern athletes are learning to tell their own stories instead of letting the industry define them. Skylar shares advice for college players preparing for the next level and speaks honestly about the emotional, financial, and mental challenges that come with building a career across the world.</p>
