In the summer going into freshman year‚ my grandpa said to me he expected a state ring. I told him that was impossible.

My First High School Basketball Game I believe playing a sport that you love is fun‚ but at the same time winning is more fun. For me I figured this out when I was ten years old. I was playing a pickup game at the RAC and my brother hit the game winning shot. I was so happy because I gave him the assists. Then it came to me like I bolt of lightning that playing basketball is fun when you win. Ever since that moment it helped me perform to my full potential. It was cold snowy Saturday morning
