The Channelview-based football coach laid the foundation and served as a big influence on Hurts’ career.

Amidst this triumphant streak, Hurts truly received a lot of attention from the “City of Brotherly Love” as he decided to grace the NBA celebrity row. The viral clip from Wells Fargo Center was all the more special as fans noticed the father-son duo. The game, however, turned out to be a miserable one for LeBron James and his team.
