About this listen

Edward Pollard’s basketball career didn’t end — it evolved.

In this episode of Courtside, Marc Israel talks with the former Lamar High and Morehouse hooper about his journey from high-level basketball to overseas leagues, law school, and ultimately serving on Houston City Council.

Pollard explains how the discipline, competitiveness, and “get it done” mentality from basketball now drive his approach to leadership, community service, and running District J.

This is a basketball story first — just played on a different court.

Thanks for listening to Courtside.
