Iona's Ray Jarvis interviews Allan Houston

Former Knicks guard Allan Houston talks with Iona University graduate student Ray Jarvis about his NBA career and life after the cheering ends. Houston and his wife Tammie founded FISLL to assist young adults to lead a better life. FISLL is a social impact brand whose purpose is to engage, equip, inspire, and outfit people to live better, lead better, and perform better. Founded by NBA All-Star Allan Houston, the organization is named for the Five Fundamentals of faith, integrity, sacrifice, leadership and legacy, for which he credits his success as an athlete and in life. FISLL’s platform provides multimedia content, apparel and licensing. Leaning into the Five Fundamentals, FISLL offers programs, platforms and products for youth and adults with the purpose of promoting leadership, intentionality and personal growth in all aspects of one’s life. Those who engage with FISLL encounter a culture of mentorship, a suite of tools and strategies, and a focus on values that prepare them to be ready physically, mentally and spiritually to meet life’s challenges and opportunities. By leaning on FISLL tools, strategies and values throughout their lives, FISLL participants are well prepared “from the inside out” to overcome barriers and experience success: as a student, performer, partner and parent; in their chosen vocation; and as a member of their community. *Images or video used in this piece are under the Fair Use Doctrine
