Actually, we support teams for secondary school students, too. And also has some public funding.

The Foundation uses private donations to support basketball teams for girls and boys in primary school, right?

I've spent the last two decades trying to alleviate the problem. The Foundation is just the latest attempt.

I went to university, and I studied public health and learned about the seriousness of the obesity epidemic, particularly among kids and adolescents in poor communities.

Okay, that was 20 years ago, and you're back in the news. You've created a foundation that works to get more kids playing team sports. Why?

I knew basketball wasn't a career with a lot of longevity for most players. So I wanted to change careers while I was still young.

As for money, I turned professional at 18, so I'd actually earned a lot and saved most of it, because I had great financial advisors.

Not at all. It was hard to quit. I was tempted to stay in the game, because I loved basketball, and I loved my team.

When you left the sport, there was speculation that you were having issues with your teammates, or even an injury.

I was in the limelight when I was still a high school student, and went professional right after high school graduation, which was a mistake.

Meg, I loved being an athlete, but I didn't love being a celebrity.

John, you stunned fans by leaving the sport at just 25. Why did you retire so early.

Today on People in the News, our guest is John Williams. The name may not sound familiar to you, but John was once an acclaimed basketball player.

• fund v. 有时会被读成像"find"，这里的 funding 也被读成了 "finding"
