Jose De la Cruz '20 Recruiting Profile

Hey Coach this is Jose, I am a senior from Providence, Rhode Island. It's a really small place so usually when I play out of state I am used to being considered the "under dog". I dont hate being called that because having people underestimate me is what gave me my dog mentality, which you see players such as Kobe and Westbrook play as. I make sure I stay on top of my academics but as soon as I finish my work, you will always catch me in the gym working on my craft. I feel as I am different from other recruits because of my drive, mindset when I step on the court, my love for the game and my willingness to get better both on and off the basketball court.
