Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes wants the world to know that he was an up-and-coming basketball star before establishing himself as one of the best players in the NFL.

A former three-sport athlete, Mahomes averaged 19.9 points through 27 games during the 2012-13 varsity basketball season for Whitehouse High School in Texas.
