Devin Cannady: ‘I am a winner ... I want to be a part of this experience.’

Devin Cannady, the 6’2” guard from Princeton, has had an interesting journey to get to where he is today. In his own words, Cannady’s journey has been a blessing ... and more than just basketball.

“It’s a blessing. For me, being the first one in my family to go to college, pursuing professional basketball,” said Cannady. And not just college but Princeton, which Cannady has described, without much exaggeration, as “the best school in the world”

Now, the challenge is the NBA and while 20 Princeton graduates have won Nobel prizes, only 10 have played in the league (two for the Nets).
