Describe what you didvto prepare for the upcoming season?
I worked out at the YMCA, get there around 5:00am. I’d stay all day, I’d eat there. I worked on my conditioning to be the best. I attended camps and played against good competition. I had to get physically strong enough to keep up and be able to handle my own. I had to keep eating right and work on my attitude, and stay humble. I made sure I stayed focused, and keep on the right path. My workouts were everyday, rain or shine.
How do you envision yourself contributing to your team on and off the court?
I see myself being a good teammate. I’m trying to be a leader even though I’m young. On the court I see myself communicating a lot, and keeping my team focused and not side tracked. Off the court I’m going to keep good relationships with my teammates. Have fun with them this year, win, and improve together as a team.
