In this episode of Beyond High Performance, Jason Jaggard sits down with Matisse Thybulle, Shooting Guard for the Portland Trail Blazers, celebrated for his elite defensive skills and creative pursuits beyond basketball.

Coached by Dan Leffelaar, Co-President of Novus Global and Founder of the Novus Global Sport division, Matisse reflects on pivotal moments in his career — including turning a season-ending injury into a powerful opportunity for leadership, mentorship, and personal growth.

From choosing discomfort as a path to growth, to reframing setbacks as launching pads for new possibilities, Matisse offers powerful lessons for athletes, leaders, and creatives alike.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode

• Basketball as self-discovery: Why Matisse sees the game as a path, not an identity.
• Turning injury into impact: How he mentored teammates while sidelined.
• From defense to offense: Shifting from reactive to proactive on the court and in life.
• Choosing discomfort: Why Matisse sees it as a product worth pursuing.
• Balancing creativity & competition: Moving from viral YouTube fame back to a focused athletic career.
