Personal Statement
Hello, My name is Chad Duke and I am from New Jersey however I live in Brooklyn, growing up in Brooklyn I did not really know what sport that I would be interested in playing in. I tried many sports that include Soccer, Tennis, and Baseball but I did not find that any of those sports would be a great fit for me. Until I started playing basketball and I realized that basketball is the sport that I want to play not just in school and on teams but I want to play it Professionally, I want to get paid to play the sport that I love so much. And every time i hear the saying "Do what you love and you will never work a day in your life", that is what I want to do with Basketball I want to go to the NBA and play ball. I know it is not easy but I will not stop till I make it, I have been told to be a leader, determined, driven, intelligent, Athletic, Tenacious, a great All Around Player, Confident, Outspoken, and can do great things when I get older. Finally, I want to play Men's Basketball at a very High level that includes College Basketball (Division 1) for a great college and play exceptionally well and then in time go to the NBA. Finally, this is my dream that I have and I know I will make it and I know how and I want to make my dream into a reality.
