This week, Game Changers Live discusses an important topic with NYC Hoops Legend Chamique Holdsclaw.  In her latest book, "Breaking Through: Beating the Odds Shot After Shot", Holdsclaw provides an in-depth perspective on the difficult journey she has had throughout her high profile life as one of the most decorated basketball players (male or female) to have come out of NYC.

After winning three consecutive NY State Championships at Christ the King, Holdsclaw went on to play for legendary head coach Pat Summitt at Tennessee.  Holdsclaw brought that prolific program another remarkable three NCAA Championships.  She went on to play in the WNBA & in the Olympics, but her most challenging opponent has been her bout with depression.

Holdsclaw headlines a list of star athletes, such as Terry Bradshaw and Brandon Lloyd, who are choosing to open up about the illness in order to help others who may be suffering as well.

We'll discuss her new book, her journey, her career, and her work as an ambassador for Active Minds.

We'll also cover other topics: Is Peyton Manning a good fit for Denver?  Who were the winners & losers of NBA Free Agency? Which member(s) of the GCL Crew is leading the #GCLBracketChallenge?
