Chris Carr is the founding principal of 43 Hoops, Inc. He was born and raised in Pilot Knob, MO. Carr had a stellar high school career and was awarded First Team Unanimous Decision All-State Honors, Missouri State High School Athletic Association All Star Game Most Valuable Player honors.
After high school, he received a full athletic scholarship to play basketball for Southern Illinois University (SIU) in Carbondale. At SIU, Carr led his team to three consecutive NCAA tournament appearances. Following his junior season he was named both the Missouri Valley Conference MVP and the Missouri Conference Tournament MVP.
In 1995, the National Basketball Association's Phoenix Suns drafted Carr in the second round. He later played for the Minnesota Timberwolves, New Jersey Nets, Chicago Bulls and the Boston Celtics.
Although basketball is a large portion of his life, Carr enjoys mentoring and sharing his life experiences with young people, traveling and, most importantly, spending quality time with his wife Tanya and their five children.
