MICHAEL LONEY - FOUNDERMichael founded Freedom Hoops in 2014 alongside friend and mentor Kevin Kacy of Freedom Fire. Throughout his career, basketball seemed to promise fulfillment but God used basketball to teach Michael to solely boast in Christ. He has a passion to follow Christ, romance his wife each day, point his sons to Jesus, and to use basketball and the gospel to disciple and transform urban youth to know God.

D'VANTE MOSBY - BASKETBALL CULTURE & OPERATIONSD’Vante grew up in the urban core of Kansas City and lived the life many of our young men are facing. Despite a successful career in basketball through high school and college he notes his relationship with God as the key to true fulfillment. He was drawn to the vision of using basketball to capture the hearts of urban youth because that’s how he came to know Jesus himself. He and his wife Morgan enjoy the game and long to see lives changed by Jesus through discipleship.
