I love the way basketball pushes me beyond my limits physically, mentally, and emotionally. It’s more than a game it’s therapy, it’s purpose, it’s my way of expressing who I am. On the court, everything else fades away there’s only the moment, the team, and the challenge ahead. I love the grind early mornings, late nights, tough losses, and big wins. I love how it brings people together different backgrounds, same goal. Basketball has taught me leadership, discipline, and resilience. It’s show.
My biggest inspiration on and off the basketball court is my mom and dad. They’ve shown me what true strength, sacrifice, and love look like. Whether it was driving me to games, pushing me when I wanted to quit, or believing in me when I didn’t believe in myself they’ve been my foundation.
