How Jimmy Butler Built Big Face Coffee

Ndamukong sits down with No Free Lunch contributor Jabari Young to talk about Big Face, NBA star Jimmy Butler's coffee brand. Coffee is a competitive, $80 billion dollar industry. So how did Butler go from being a hotel-room barista for fellow players in the NBA Covid-19 bubble...to running a whole coffee company--complete with merch, retail stores and big name partnerships? They discuss loving your product, the right (and wrong) investments, and how to learn from expensive mistakes
