Magic Johnson
Hailing from Lansing, Michigan, this NBA legend was a three-time league MVP, a twelve time All-Star, won five championships, and was named the finals MVP three times. He played his whole career with the Los Angeles Lakers. He tested positive for HIV in 1992, which was the same year he played on the Gold Medal winning United States Olympic basketball team. Since he was diagnosed with HIV Magic Johnson has been an advocate for spreading knowledge about safe sex and AIDS/HIV prevention. Booking Magic Johnson would be a great idea if you want a motivational speaker to talk about overcoming life’s obstacles at your next event.
