Personal Statement

Ever since I was a little kid I have loved the game of basketball.  It isn't just the scoring,  it is creating for others,  making the big play, thriving in the clutch  and hanging with my team.  

I move the ball very well, I have great vision, and I am a high basketball IQ player (coach's son).   I am extremely coachable and a great teammate, I completely understand it is about the team.   I take pride in being a great 3 pt shooter both as catch and shoot and off the screen.  I can score efficiently  but take great pride in being a great playmaker and finding the open man.       I am long for my position so defensively I work hard and pride myself in deflections,steals and getting on the floor.   As my size and strength improve so does my rebounding and taking it to the basket.   I love simply to compete.   

My ultimate goal and dream as a basketball player, is to play and excel at the collegiate level while obtaining my degree.      To reach my goals I have dedicated myself to constant work and improvement. I am searching for a program that will allow me to contribute to its team success, excel academically, and is as excited to find me as I am to find them.
