Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

Who I think I play like, Jaden Mcdaniels, Jaxson Hayes

Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?

As a small forward I see myself as the guy who’s always ready to step up whenever the team needs me. I’ve got to be versatile whether it’s knocking down a three, driving to the rim or crashing the boards I’m ready to do whatever it takes to help us win I know I’ve got to be able to score, but I also need to lock down on defense move the ball and help out in transition. It's about being that

What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?

As a small forward, I’ve developed a lot of important skills on and off the court and leadership is definitely at the top of the list I’ve learned to step up when the game gets tight to rally my teammates and to make sure everyone stays focused But leadership isn’t in big moments it’s about leading by example whether that’s showing up early for practice.

What type of college are you looking for?

If I’m looking for a college like the University of Minnesota I’d be after a place that has a strong athletic program, a big-time basketball culture, and offers opportunities to compete at a high level. Minnesota’s athletics are known for being competitive and tough so I’d want a school where basketball is taken seriously and there’s a strong phases on both individual development and team.
