Michael De Bien '23 Recruiting Profile

Basketball has always been a passion of mine since I first stepped on the court at around 10 years old. I aspire to play at the college level to compete, build relationships, and open opportunities while continuing my education.

I have incredibly good ball handling skills, strong on defense, tough mentally, and possess a high IQ for the game. Serious but sensible when it comes to encouraging my teammates, I constantly try my best to lead by example. Working side-by-side with my coaches, leading practices, and always striving to be one of the hardest working players you will find and that will capture your attention.

I work hard year-round. This includes improving my basketball skills, conditioning, and participating in tournaments. In the classroom, I always try to study hard and maintain the highest GPA possible.

I am open to all options and want to attend a college that aligns with my core values as a student and player. A place where I will continue to push myself in the classroom and be a formidable player and asset to the school. Throughout this process, helping me to become a significant role model to my peers, my community and of course, make my parents proud.
