The Pal’s talk to Noah Lewis & Winta Desta (Wayne & Theresa Embry Fellow)
Noah Lewis & Winta Desta recipients of the Wayne & Theresa Embry Fellow. The Wayne and Theresa Embry Fellowship (WTEF) provides two Canadians the opportunity to gain firsthand experience in a professional basketball operations environment with the Toronto Raptors. Noah had a focus of On-Court Player Development/Coaching, and Winta had a focus of Wellness & Development.
The fellowship consists of rotations to provide growth of knowledge and experience in all facets of an NBA basketball team. These include: coaching, scouting, team services, player development, medical, financial, equipment, travel and G-League. Each rotation will include a mentor and specific responsibilities in order to learn the role that each department plays within an NBA organization.
The Toronto Raptors are looking for individuals who, like Wayne & Theresa Embry, demonstrate a commitment to social impact and the game of basketball. Ideal candidates are community leaders working in basketball and/or working professionals with a passion for the game.
The 2022 application window is January 19, 2022 to February 25, 2022.
