It’s not easy to hear Chris Herren tell his life's complex story. A high school and college basketball superstar, Herren was drafted into the NBA in 1999 and ended up playing for his hometown Boston Celtics. His hardwood stats are impressive, but it’s his off-the-court journey that will truly earn your respect. A recovering alcohol and drug addict, Herren - now an author, motivational speaker, and wellness advocate - was the keynote speaker in the Kirby Arts Center on Jan. 15 for Lawrenceville’s Wellness Week.
