Just weeks before being drafted, he was still cutting grass for his family’s business — a testament to the relentless grind that got him here. Rising from Division II to the NBA in just two years, Stirtz credits his parents and his cousin, a hardworking farmer, for instilling discipline that fueled his transformation. After his dad called him out for lackluster effort, Stirtz hit the gym at 6 AM every day — and hasn’t stopped. His story isn’t just about talent, but about heart, hustle, and humble roots. And yes, he still plans to mow his own lawn. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
