VANCOUVER, BC – You’d be hard-pressed to find an individual with a more unique and informed perspective on Vancouver Whitecaps FC than Steve Nash.
Nash, of course, was a high performance athlete himself – to say the least.
The retired Canadian basketball legend, who grew up in Victoria, B.C., was a two-time NBA MVP and eight-time NBA all-star, which makes him one of the greatest Canadian athletes of all time.
So he can certainly relate to the players.
Following his playing career, Nash then took over as general manager of the Canadian senior men’s basketball team and, more recently, became a player development consultant for 2015 NBA champion Golden State Warriors.
