When did you start playing basketball and why?
I started playing basketball in 7th grade, mainly because I loved playing 1-on-1 with my older brother in our front yard. I tried a lot of sports and basketball was the only sport that I really enjoyed playing.
What do you love most about playing basketball?
The feeling I get when playing basketball is a feeling of satisfaction that I haven't experienced anywhere else. I love the idea that in basketball, the more unselfish you are, the more success you will have. And of course, the brotherhood.
