When did you start playing basketball?
“I started playing basketball around fifth grade.”
What’s one goal you have personally, or for the team, this season?
“Personally as I player I am trying to be as under control as possible, while still
in attack mode.”
What’s the main difference between high school and college basketball, and was it
easy to adjust?
“College basketball is way more fast (paced). College basketball is more fundamental
than anything. (In) high-school basketball, you could get away with being bare minimum,
but in college, it shows.”
Do you have any moments that stick out to you while at LCC, on or off the court, that
you will take with you after school?
“LCC basketball has given me my best friends and I’ll forever cherish that.”
What are your plans after LCC?
“Post-LCC, I plan on continuing my education, maybe through the four-in-one program
for my bachelor’s (degree).”
What is one thing you think you have improved this season?
“The season just started, so I have a lot more improvements to make.”
Do you have any pre-game music you listen to?
“Pre-game music will always be Lil Baby or Lil Durk.”
