You decide who will be named Youth Athlete of the Year, featured in a 3BRAND ad in Sports Illustrated, and take home $25,000
She likes to play basketball because it makes her happy and makes her forget about anything else.
Kai is inspired by people who lead with heart and consistency. On the court, she looks up to players who work hard, stay focused, and lead by example, not just the most talented, but the most dedicated. Off the court, she’s inspired by those who stay grounded, keep their faith, and push through challenges. She wants to be someone others can respect for both her game and her character.
Moments that make me proud has to be me seeing Kai choose to train on her own and really want to get better. That mindset shows growth. And when she started getting awards for her effort, it felt like proof that all her hard work is paying off.
