 My collegiate goals are to become successful as an athlete and academically . I want to achieve goals that aren't even thought of to be possible . For instance , graduating college with a Masters degree and also making it to the NBA . As a basketball player , I am supportive , great IQ , determined , passionate , confident , mentally strong, and respectful . With these traits I know that this is what makes me a candidate for any team . Because I am always consistent and discipline with the way I work and study. The thing that makes me different from other recruits is my character athletics and academics. I'm willing to take the risk. Im willing to do whatever it takes to take my skills to the next level as a player and academically in school . You know why ? If we don't try in this world to get what we want or need we won't get it at all . But if we at-least try we are 50% close to achieving our personal goals . My GPA is a 4.0 currently , but I didn't just receive it . I worked very hard for it .Staying up late , completing extra school work , tutoring , etc . Working hard to the best of your ability , compliments great success and talents .
