Rain from the age of five years old chose basketball as his number one sport and his only sport. He’s played year-round basketball for the past seven years he’s become one of the best in his age group. he’s 14 years old. He loves the game! He dedicates everything to the game. The most important things to Rain are our Lord and Savior, his family, and basketball. He’s a leader, and he’s a dedicated player. It would be an honor for him to win.
Kobe Bryant, of course he loves a lot of the NBA players! But I will have to tell ya we get new Kobe shoes every couple months. I think he just got the new Kobe fives couple weeks ago. His dad is it inspiration to him as well. He really looks up to his father.
We were in a tournament and Rain’s team took first place! He is known as an outside shooter, but as people started to know his name because he was known as the shooter! I was so proud of him! I had parents and coaches come up to me and ask who he was and where he was from. That was a very humbling moment! This boy makes me proud every single day! He impresses me every day with the work he puts in to the game that he loves basketball🏀
