Personal Statement
I'm in love with playing basketball, and as much as I enjoy playing, I know basketball is a means to an end, not an end in itself. My goal is to develop myself physically and emotionally through basketball, competition, camaraderie, and lessons from failure and success. My goal is to find a good school, to use basketball as an anchor to keep me motivated, accountable and goal focused. My longterm goal is to go to chiropractic school. Basketball will give me an opportunity to stay focused on school and to be a part of something bigger than myself. While I've been the tallest kid since 6th grade, I understand and desire to develop skills independent of my size. I love to dribble the ball and fill other rolls on the floor. If I had to honestly evaluate myself, I'm a solid offensive player my coaches expect me to be a leader on offense, but I think my defensive effort, skill and presence are even more impactful.
