You’re coming on strong this season. How’d you prepare yourself ?

In November (2019) I was told I wasn’t good enough to continue playing basketball. I’ve always had a hard work ethic but after hearing that I told myself I was going to work harder and longer than ever. I spent countless hours in the gym trying to perfect my craft so I could prove doubters wrong.

What would you tell a kid that wants to be as successful in the game as you’ve been?

Dr. Richard Sweeny(Goodrich High School) because he would always help me with anything I didn’t understand, proved he cared about all the students, and made class fun.
