The conversation also examines a recent setback against the league-leading Scarborough Shooting Stars, with Baker discussing the lessons learned from facing one of the CEBL's top teams and the message he delivered to his players afterward.

In this episode, we sit down with Aryan Sharma, a former Western University basketball player and CEBL draftee, to talk about life after sport — and why content creation is becoming a natural next chapter for athletes.Aryan played four collegiate seasons at Western University, appearing in 101 games and helping lead the program to an OUA second-place finish and a U SPORTS semifinal. He posted a career-high 37 points against Laurentian, grabbed 13 rebounds versus Nipissing, and was later selected second overall by the Montréal Alliance in the 2023 CEBL U SPORTS Draft. Off the court, he was also recognized with the Dr. Craig Boydell Award for Academic Excellence & Community Service.Since stepping away from competitive basketball, Aryan has shifted his focus to building an audience online. While he's had viral moments across short-form platforms, his real edge lies in understanding how to grow, engage, and monetize smaller, highly connected audiences — especially for creators who don't aspire to chase a million followers.This conversation explores:- How athletes can transition their competitive mindset into content creation- The identity shift that comes with leaving sport- Why small audiences can be more powerful (and profitable) than massive ones- How to build trust, community, and consistency onlineWhether you're an athlete navigating life after sport, a creator just getting started, or someone looking to build something meaningful online, this episode offers a grounded, honest look at the journey.

The episode starts from there, and it makes perfect sense, Melvin the steady veteran for Team Canada and Trae, still a young 30 but a constant on our National Teams who's slowly becoming that Veteran as well, possibly an “UNC” role too!  Trae had a great four-year career at Vermont, leading his team to an NCAA appearance in 2017, where they lost to Purdue. (Trae had 15 points, 7 rebounds and 6 assists). Since college Trae played professionally in Germany, Finland, the NBA G League, the CEBL, Spain, and Montenegro and contributed everywhere he goes.  The one constant that remains is Trae always stepping up when his number is called for his country, no matter the time or place he represents the maple leaf with pride! Tap into episode 176 with this massive Nas fan and hear more of his journey! Best to Trae going forward! #Canadabasketball #ahoopsjourneypodcast Trae Bell-Haynes - Guest https://www.instagram.com/trae_ball https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trae_Bell-Haynes Aaron Mitchell - Host Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/a_a_mitch/ Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/ahoopsjourney/
