Meet Our Team
Charles Tweedle
My name is Charles Tweedle aka “Tweed”. One of the only San Antonio Spurs fans outside of San Antonio. Born and raised in South Holland, IL. I developed a passion for basketball back when I was shoveling snow on my driveway just to play in the winter. It feels great to discuss what I love through NumbersLie.
Chris Mitchell
My name is Chris Mitchell, but Krusha or Boogie to close friends. As a former athlete, born and raised in Chicago’s Bronzeville Neighborhood, my love for ALL levels of basketball began at an early age on Chicago’s playgrounds and has blossomed into an obsession. With this platform, I looked to spread and express my knowledge of the game, as well as showcase Illinois youth basketball and its players!
Jawaan Willis
Jawaan Willis aka “just Jawaan” aka “I’m not Fred VanVleet” from South Holland Illinois. I first fell in love with the game in the backyard of my grandmother’s house in Markham Illinois. That passion led me to play high school basketball at Thornwood and then Ashford University. I currently coach for youth leagues across northwest Indiana.
Johnathan Minefee
*Johnathan Minefee aka Mino aka Richard Lawson (Most people just call me Minefee because Johnathan is so regular)
*NumbersLie Videographer
* My passion for basketball developed watching the Lakers/Bulls with my Dad growing up. I fell in love with Basketball watching Kobe.
Phil Hardy
My name is Phil Hardy, to the social world, illwillphil, but to many of my friends, Philly. Born and raised on the Southside of Chicago, seeing the Bulls going after six championships, my love for the game of basketball started very early. As a former high school player, that very love of the game grew immensely to all levels of the sport. With my passion, I hope to inspire today’s youth to not only play the game but to appreciate the game in every aspect.
