Player Profile

Michael Kraabel
Entrepreneurial Guard/Forward

Kraabel grew up wandering the globe with his family. As the son of United Nations ambassador, he had the privilege of growing up side-by-side with the sons and daughter’s of today’s world leaders. While attending a private school in Eastern Europe, he started to play basketball while the other young boys enjoyed tennis and cricket. He learned the art of the sport, but also built some life-long relationship that would help him develop a successful business empire many years later.

Today, he owns and manages a holding company that deals in nearly every aspect of life – from construction to government defense contracts. His most recent ventures include the development of a proprietary eVoting system that has been used in countries like Venezuela, Afghanistan, North Korea and several of the former eastern block nations.

In his spare time, he enjoys spending time with his wife Shelby in one of their various homes. She comes to cheer at every one of his games.
