Jeron Artest '19 Recruiting Profile

NCAA Tournament March Madness! I have been setting goals for my future since I could walk and talk. I never turn down a challenge and will challenge myself if something feels too easy. I began playing aau basketball at age 7 in The Bronx and New York City when I told my parents I wanted to be on a team. I keep track of my stats to know my strengths and work on improvements. I focus on being competitive quickly versatile having a good all-around game and discipline myself in fundamentals. Plays, speed, strength, offense, defense, and a high basketball IQ are what drive me to be a great guard. I am always watching and learning from the best to play at the highest level. 

I like being productive with my time so I take advantage of the activities my school and community offers. I participate in several school clubs and volunteer with non-profit organizations. I like to help others and surround myself with positive people. 

Going to a university on scholarship has always been my goal because sports and school are important to me. My favorite subject is math and my gpa is 4.1. I am determined to succeed, be apart of a hard working team, and play for a winning coach.
