Personal Statement
In all honesty, basketball has become more than just a sport for me; it is my lifestyle, my passion, and my overall reason to get out of bed in the morning. One of my greatest aspirations is to play at the collegiate level, and I make it a point to work towards this goal daily. I pride myself on my unwavering work ethic and my commitment to consistently improve my craft. The traits that make me a great candidate for your team are:
- I am coach-able. I am able to take criticisms from both my coaches and my teammates and make the appropriate adjustments.
- My vocal leadership. I am a firm believer that basketball is a talking sport, and communication is key to any winning team. I make sure that I communicate with my coach and my team on and off of the court. I make sure that everything that I see is what my team will see.
- My academics. Unlike most prospects, I am a 4.0 honors student enrolled in both AP and honors classes. It is important to me that I am both athletically and academically sound.
