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

I love the competition that comes with playing this sport. I love playing the game I love with my friends/teamates. And I love the grind I do to make my dreams come true


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

My Uncle inspires me both on and off the court.Because he played high school basketball so I want to make it for both of us. Also he inspires me to be hardworking and that consistency is the way to get better at basketball and just to get better at things in general.


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

One moment in Elijah’s athletic journey that makes me proud. Is seeing how consistent and obsessed with the game of basketball he is. I am also proud that he gets the work in no matter what, whether that is waking up at 5am and staying at the gym for 4-5hours or seeing him get in the weight room to get stronger I am just proud of the young man he has become
