    A. My advice to anyone who wants to play professional basketball is consistency…Stay the course. Don’t compare yourself of your journey to anyone because that’s the quickest way to be deterred. Focus on your journey and remain steadfast to achieving your goal.

    Q. If you could describe this year of basketball what would it be?

    A. The NBA season during the pandemic was some of the best basketball I’ve seen this year. I think because of the pandemic and social distancing rules in place, the players only had one focus and that was basketball. Everyone was competing with a level of intensity at an all-time high. It was great to watch.
