Personal Statement

My goals and aspirations are to the make it to the NBA, plain and simple. I know that where I'm from it may seem almost impossible but nothing is impossible with the right amount of work. I am a good candidate for your team because I am willing to do whatever it takes to win. I will put double the hours in the gym if that's what it requires to be the best. What makes me different from other recruits is I can shoot the ball and explode and finish at the rim extremely well. Academic, I am a good student in the classroom.
