What is your all-time favorite basketball memory?
My favorite memory is how I got started. I started in six grade getting the feel of basketball. My sister wanted to try out, but I didn’t but she forced me to come wash her try out when I got there. The coach said sign in and go stretch. I didn’t know where I was supposed to do so I went ahead and did it and I fell in love with it, even though I didn’t make the team in six grade I made it work. Now I have been on varsity since freshman year.
