He also shares the story of growing up in a single parent household, the plan he made with his mom at five years old, and the full circle moment when that kid from St. Louis finally got to sit across from his idol Kobe Bryant. Off the court, Tatum gets candid about becoming a father at 19, raising his two sons Deuce and Dylan, and making peace with his own dad.
