Personal Statement
I have been playing basketball since I was five years old. I started playing for my father's AAU team in fourth grade. He told me that I had to work for my minutes, and that he wouldn't just hand them to me because I was his son. I trained and trained and developed such an intense work ethic, one that has helped me become a better basketball player, but more importantly, a better student and a better person. My goal for the future is to be the best I can be, and I believe that the best way for me to achieve this goal is by going to a good college and to work even harder than I am now.
