Player Bio

How would you briefly describe your gameplay style?

I am a tall guard that can handle the ball, score, and pass at a high level. I am a sharp shooter that can catch and shoot and also create my own shot when I need to. I am known for my playmaking and scoring on all levels of the court. I'm not just a offensive threat but also a defensive threat, I play lockdown defense not letting my opponent get by me, I am a very good shot blocker also.

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

I am always very optomistic and encouraging but I also call my teammates out when they make mistakes and tell them what they can do better.My mentality when playing is to beat my opponent with whatever it takes mentally and physically. I also like to have a little fun, off the court I'm the funny and nice guy, my mentality off the court is that there's no point of being mean.

Are you involved in any clubs, organizations, or have you received any non-sport awards?

Im going into freshman year so I haven't done anything in high school yet but I know that I am going to be apart of DECA which is a business organization that competes against other schools nationwide.

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

I have always been a leader of the Basketball teams that I have been on, I am also a leader off the court though. I try to set a good example for others to make better choices. I am also a very good team player, I will always make the extra pass, pass up a contested layup for a pass to a wide open teammate, stuff like that. I do that to win because Basketball is a team sport.

What type of college are you looking for?

I'm only a freshman but I've thought about my future and especially college a lot. I want to play high level D1 basketball and I know that's a very big thing to want, but I feel like I can make it there. If not, I would want low D1 or high D2 but for what I really want which is high D1 I really want to play at Baylor, GCU, Arizona State, Creighton, Davidson, or Kentucky.
