Cotton was a football and basketball player when James convinced him to join the basketball team, and the rest was history. After his notable high school sports career, Cotton briefly pursued football as a defensive tackle at Ohio State, but realized early on that it wasn’t the right career path for him. In 2023, Cotton is pursuing a new form of entertainment: music. He’s a rapper, and his song “Almost Home” was included in the video game “NBA 2K14,” for which James curated the music.
