About Kobe

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

Two-Way Defender | Pass-First Playmaker I’m a versatile defender who can guard any position from PG to SF. As a point guard, my first priority is getting my teammates involved and setting up the offense. I can shoot from beyond the arc, hit mid-range jumpers, and drive to the basket, giving me multiple scoring options. I’m also a strong ball handler, confidently bringing the ball up the court and

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

Laid-Back Off the Court, All Intensity On It I’m a chill, laid-back guy off the court, but once the game starts, I bring high energy and focus. I love playing defense and being the player my team can rely on to step up and guide them. Whether it’s locking down my man or helping my teammates make plays, I’m always ready to bring my all for the win.

Growing Leader | Team-First Guard I’m stepping up as a leader, becoming more vocal, and coming out of my shell on the court.

I’m all about creating opportunities for my teammates and keeping the energy high on both ends of the floor.

I’m here to play better every game, with no hesitation, and make a real impact for my team.

What type of college are you looking for?

Seeking Balance and Growth On and Off the Court I’m looking for a college where I can find a solid balance between academics, athletics, and campus life. I want a school that will let me enjoy the college experience while staying focused on my studies and improving as a player. Being part of a strong sports program where I can contribute and grow both on and off the court is really important to m
