I first started playing basketball in 5th grade and i just liked it and kind of good. so i made the decision that i want to do this for a living, so i started practicing and practicing and practicing. during 6th grade tryouts i did not make the team because i wasnt that good. Then 7th grade tryouts i still didnt make the team so that pushed me harder.during 8th grade tryouts i made the team but came off the bench.Then 9th grade i became a starter.i now want to peruse my dream of becoming an NBA player and going to college.
