Playing basketball always positions me to push harder. In my head, I must strive to work harder and play smarter so that I will get better as I continue playing basketball. Whatever it takes to compete at the highest level of basketball (and to the best of my abilities), I’ll do it! I want to continue to grow in maturity and increase my overall basketball IQ as I continue playing. I believe that this is achievable because I am always willing to learn and listen to my coach(es) and peers. I believe in practicing and taking practice seriously. If I train, practice and sharpen my skills I will be a strong asset to my team. With that, my team could be very effective when I do my best. Also, as my team and I are equally playing our best and giving our best every time we play, we will have great success. I believe that we can each help each other succeed in a team environment. We could help each other "stand out" as we play hard, play together and do our best for each other.
Academically, I believe that success with grades are equally important as success in basketball. Therefore, I must work just as hard at getting the best grades I can get, just the same as me working hard to succeed in basketball.
I really want to play in the NBA when I'm older. I love the NBA!
I think I'm a good candidate for your team because I'm willing to learn and be teachable as well as contribute my skillset for the success of your team.
