Urban Insider Takes a Look Inside Hoopstar Deven’s World











One of the things I like most about choosing the people I work with, is that I come across the most amazing people with the best stories to tell. Recently I caught up with Mr.Deven Hubbard of Atlanta, GA, he is young and doing it all, if you follow him on IG like I do you can see he dominates the social world all the way to L.A. So it’s no surprise that the photogenic athlete has caught the modeling world’s attention as well, he has an inspiring positive attitude that will serve him well on the successful path he is on. You don’t have to take my word for it, when he tells his own story so well……


Q:Let's start with talking about where you are from for the people who just might be getting familiar with who you are..........

A:For the ones that don't know me as much, I'm from Atlanta, Ga. East Atlanta to be exact! People from my hood mostly just see me as the regular Deven before basketball and everything, some glorify me and also you have those individuals that hate you for no reason.


 Q:When did you first notice that you had a talent for basketball, and why basketball out of all sports....



A:I first realized I had a talent for basketball around 5th grade; I was playing on a 7th grade middle school team, while being only in elementary. I was the talk of my school ,and I was better then everyone, so I chose basketball because my uncle wanted me to dominate at that sport, as well it being my passion.





Q:Who and what inspires you to push yourself to the limits, and what basketball player past or present would you say you study the most to improve your craft.......


A:My family, my close friends and grace inspires me to go at it each and every day and night. I push myself to my limits, but I also know when to give my body a break! My mom is a major asset along with one of my close friends from childhood named Xavier Johnson, they give me they confidence and motivation I need. I wouldn't say I study anyone, because I don't. I just work on my game, and change what needs to be fixed that's how I go about it.



Q:At the current age you are, what would you say Devin Hubbard represents and stands for.....



A:Deven Hubbard stands for opportunity, doing the impossible, making nothing into something, and just always pushing forward! Never look back just do what makes you happy and kill mf's on the way to reaching your journey. You have to be a savage!



Q:Since we are in the month of September, let's talk fashion I follow you on IG, and I see you all swaggy with the pics, what brands are you rocking right now, and who do you think is the dopest designer out right now.....

A:Well I wear mostly Off White, Karl Kani, Moschino as well as a lil Givenchy here and there, I also own a few Helmut Lang pieces, but I rarely show off! I'm very creative I love dressing up on occasions, and putting nice pieces together I challenge myself to be stylish trying different pieces together.

Q:Are you interested in modeling as more of a hobby or is that something you take really seriously...

A:I take pictures more so of a hobby! I just like to do it I'm not really so into it seriously unless I'm getting paid. But it's just something really fun I like to do! Nothing major!



Q:Where does Devin see himself in 5years.....
A: I see myself on the Forbes list, playing basketball doing everything I love and dream of! I will be playing the game I love professionally this fall, I’m just happy to keep going.

 

Q:What music is Devin currently listening to on a daily basis.....


A:On a daily I keep Meek Mill in my playlist! I'm a motivational guy I don't listen to all that fake rap music, that's not real. I like music that shows and reflects more so on my childhood and upbringing and Meek Mill speaks my life from the heart.



Q:What's your ethnicity.....

A:African and Italian

Spotlight On:The New It Girl Jessica Burciaga

She has it all from the girl next door appeal, to extreme sex appeal. I first took notice of her when I saw the Jamie Foxx ft Drake "Fall For Your Type" video and to be honest I had to take a sceond glance because I really thought that she was JLO.
