Dasan Jones '20 Recruiting Profile

Trust the Process has always been my motto since the age of 11. As an adolescent, I was ridiculed for being over weight, and as a result, I was overlooked for many opportunities to play high-level basketball. While the desire to be great was often over shadowed by my desire to eat until I sat the bench behind lesser talented individuals. That propelled me to be great beyond measure.

My parents enrolled me for elite fitness training, and the beast began to soar!

I have always desired to follow in my dad's footsteps and play college basketball with the hopes of making it to the league. I knew at a very young age when my mom asked me what I wanted to be in life I said, "a professional basketball player, and there is no plan B, " and to date, that plan remains constant.

I am a leader on and off the court, which makes me an excellent candidate for any school. I have the ability to bring out the best in people. I am patient, kind, respectful and a motivated learner. I am eager to embrace challenges and never give up.

I am unique. I have a winning attitude and not easily defeated. Academically, things have never come easily to me. I have to always put in the work to get great grades. Math is my favorite subject. However, I often fall short of making the mark, but I keep fighting like the warrior I am.
