Thank you for generously supporting Makhai in this year’s competition. Your support helps empower the V Foundation for Cancer Research and the Why Not You Foundation in their respective missions to save lives and empower today's youth to become tomorrow's leaders.
It gives him a place where he feels complete. He loves playing with his teammates and having fun with them being a team player and having that brotherhood.
Dad inspires him. Dad passed away when he was a baby. He said he desires to make him proud on and off the field and to accomplish everything he was unable too.
Makhai suffered a knee injury which made him have to sit out for 6 weeks. He missed his whole preseason and the first 2 or 3 season games. He still went to practice to support his team. He still showed up on game day. He continued to study the play book and workout. Seeing him come back from the injury and win offense MVP had to be one of my proudest moments.
