My son has loved basketball since in diapers. He' a leader, a great shooter, mvp more than once and is a lefty who shoots right handed.

Jacob loves to compete, he has a passion to win. He loves learning the game from coaches, older players and teammates. He loves to be in the gym, either practicing or playing games. Everyday he is either watching, playing or talking about basketball.
If you asked Jacob he would say his dad inspires him. His dad played and Jacob watched old games of his dad and wants to live up to him. His Dad has coached him since he was 8. But his dad and I both know Jacob is better than he was at this age, but we don't tell Jacob.. Shhhhhh.
Its very early in jacob journey with basketball he has gotten MVP accolades, player of the games and championship trophies, but at age 9 he hit a game winning buzzer beater in a semi final game and jump into his father's arms, that was breathe taking.
