Scottie “Stats” O’Brien is one of the biggest NBA fans you will ever know. As a teenager, he’s already experienced more behind-the-curtain NBA action than most interns in the NBA. He communicates directly with Grizzlies Owner Robert Pera and front office executives Chris Wallace and John Hollinger regarding team performance and draft prospects. He’s attended Grizzlies training camp in San Diego and was hosted by Pera for the Grizzlies 2015 playoff series against the Warriors. He’s attended the Team USA Minicamp and created scouting reports from NBA Summer League in Las Vegas for the Celtics.
A lover of numbers and all-things analytics, Scottie has exercised his own dealings with statistics in his daily life.
