About James
How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?
I’m a downhill player who loves getting to the rim and finishing strong. I’ve got the handles to create my own shot, but I’m always looking to make the extra pass and find my teammates. On defense, I focus on being a lockdown defender—I can guard multiple positions, get stops, and turn them into fast-break points.
Can you provide a brief description of your mentality or personality?
I’m always the first one in the gym and the last one to leave. I bring lots of energy to every practice. I’m a self-motivated player who loves to compete and puts in the work before the game even starts. I try to lead by example every day, especially in big moments when the game is on the line and my team needs a play.
Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?
Colorado Magic AAU (Basketball)
Junior Knights of Peter Claver (Service & Leadership)
Ekar Farm & Urban Gardens Volunteer: Dedicated to sustainable farming and food security for the Denver Metro homeless population.
Athletic Media Producer: Selected by school administration to create/present the official Athletics Showcase film for prospective students.
What skills or qualities have you developed, such as leadership, teamwork, or community service?
Leadership to me is about staying vocal and helping my teammates get better. Between volunteering at Ekar Farm and working with youth with disabilities, I’ve seen how important it is to be disciplined and supportive. I bring that same energy to the court by talking on defense, keeping everyone’s head up when things get tough, and making sure we stay locked into the game plan.
Have you faced any significant challenges? If so, please describe.
Sophomore year was tough because I didn't get as much playing time as I wanted. I focused on playing lock-down defense and being the loudest person on the bench. It taught me how to stay ready at all times and make every minute count when my name finally gets called
What type of college are you looking for?
I’m looking for a college that’s going to push me both in the classroom and on the court. I want to play for a coaching staff that cares about discipline and player development, but also feels like a family. As a versatile guard, I’m ready to work hard for the team and represent the program well as a student-athlete and leader on campus
