Brandon Dorsey '24 Recruiting Profile

     For me, is that I'm a team player I get people involve of my leadership on and off the court. What make me different from other recruits is that I have autism. I had a crazy background to get to this point and basketball will help me  become the best player that I can be.  For me, academics is one one of those things I need to achieve off the court so I can play. 

     My athletics I never played in high school for the whole 4 years in my life. Until I went to Southside Occupational  Academy last year we almost made it to state in my first year but we didn’t. I also got several medals from Special Olympics every since I started in that school.  I also played at the Kroc Center and played 12 games before I turned 18 and when I was in the JR. NBA in 2019.I look up to my cousin Melvin Bell at St. Rita and Hansel Emmanuel both them give me so much motivation of what myself going to do to next to be in that category when I'm out on the court. I also like to add I played at the High School All-American Showcase also and work on strength/conditioning so I can get better for the next level for college.  

I also trained with my trainer August to get me at the highest level for college, for last summer. It was not easy personally, he will definitely pushed you to your limits, he will say “no excuses”. To me, he will want  to be successful at highest point for this fall so I can go to state and lead my team at school. I’m also going to PlayersChicago so I can get compete against men.
