These Seniors Won't Celebrate National Be Late For Something Day

September 5th is National Be Late For Something Day. This day urges us to slow down and maybe procrastinate for a day. Let's tie this in with hoops. Players that are willing to show the dedication needed to outwork the competition are a big part of what coaches at the next level are generally looking for from their future athletes. They are looking for players that will be the first in the gym and the last to leave. This likely means that they aren't looking for players that will be participating in National Be Late For Something Day. We're going to give you a list of players that most definitely won't be celebrating this holiday.    What do you do if someone doubts you? Work until they don't. The McDowell doubters seem to be gone and it's not by accident. McDowell showed up to the gym and erased any negative narratives. He's a terrific lead guard that can play at multiple paces, gets the ball to it's spots and is a high IQ and high percentage scorer.     You don't skyrocket up everyone's prospect lists by showing up to practice 5 minutes late. You do it by showing up early and working harder than the rest. Lutz is a great example of this. He's a notorious gym rat. The kind of kid that may as well keep a sleeping bag behind the rim. Lutz is probably one of the best all around shooters in the state.     Firman has been underrated his entire high school career. And still is. College coaches, I stand by the fact that this young man can and will play at the next level. If you don't believe him, he'll show up early and put in work until you do. The young man never complains. Instead, Firman gets in the gym and gets better. He's smart with the ball, can handle through pressure and shoots at a high percentage.     It's rare to find a player that will outwork [player_tooltip player_id='2089407' first='Zach' last='Norman']. He'd be a solid next level addition simply because of what he brings in terms of dedication and grit. Norman simply shows up early, gets on the court, and goes at 110%. He's a wing that will simply make plays happen no matter how many touches or shots he gets.     Fox is a busy young man. Too busy and too hard at work for this holiday. He's a multi sport star (played baseball for South Lyon who was a perennial top 20 team in the state). Fox has good fit and hip movement that lets him slide into a change of direction. He's an aware guard that makes good decisions with the ball.
