Ira Lee - Crossroads Forward - Interview

July 21, 2018
Ira Lee learned work ethic from his father, a former NFL starter, and is taking his basketball talents to Arizona.

Ira Lee's father was a ninth-round pick who worked his way to a starting role with the Los Angeles Raiders. That lesson in perseverance shaped his son's approach to basketball.

At 6-foot-8, Lee attended Crossroads School in Los Angeles and spent time at Prolific Prep, where he practiced against top prospect Josh Jackson. He signed with Arizona, bringing the relentless work ethic his father modeled to the Pac-12.
