What do they love most about playing their sport(s)?

My child loves playing basketball because it gives them a sense of freedom, focus, and purpose. They thrive on the teamwork, the challenge, and the adrenaline of the game. Whether it’s hitting a big shot or making a smart pass, basketball helps them express who they are—and pushes them to grow stronger, mentally and physically, every time they step on the court.


Who inspires them—on or off the field—and why?

My child is inspired by those who lead by example—athletes who work hard, stay humble, and never give up. Whether it’s a favorite NBA player, a dedicated coach, or even a supportive family member, they’re driven by people who show that greatness isn’t just about talent—it’s about heart, hustle, and staying true to yourself no matter what.


What’s one moment in their athletic journey that makes you proudest?

My son wakes up and the first thing he wants to do is play basketball. I am really inspire with how much he cares about basketball. He says he going to one day be in the NBA player and make a difference to those who love to play basketball. His organization skills I know he will be a good player.
