Personal Statement
I am an extremely tenacious, disciplined person. I have been playing basketball since the age of five. My parents instilled a strong work ethic in me at an early age. I have the unique ability to create plays because of extreme athleticism as well as my knowledge and anticipation in the game. My experience of always playing up a grade in school and on club teams allows me to stay calm under pressure as well as rise to the occasion of any challenge. I am an unselfish team player. My phenomenal defense creates so many opportunities in every game I play in. I understand the importance of leading through action not just in words. However, I am a natural born leader and know how to motivate my teammates to bring out the best in them. I am extremely coachable and receive criticism well. I am ready, willing, and able to implement any directions given to me at any given time. I understand the importance of family and academics. I volunteer regularly with my congregation and maintain excellent grades. I would be an asset to your team and I look forward to the opportunity. Thank you.
