Teammates say my best quality is: Passing. I get them the ball whenever they want or need it. I give it to them where it is easiest to make a shot.
Greatest achievement: Being selected to play in the McDonald’s All American Game.
Failure I learned from: Failing my driver’s test, the written part, three times. I took it once and failed and then my mom gave me the book to study and I didn’t really look it, so I failed the test again. The next time, I studied and put some time into it. Whatever you do, you have to put in hard work to expect good things.
Favorite class: Right now, it’s chemistry. We have a lot of experiments in the lab that we do. I love trying new things, trying to figure out something different.

Favorite teacher: My third-grade teacher, Miss (Colleen) Sheeron, at Kuumba Academy Charter in Wilmington, Del. She just made everything easy. She taught math and a little bit of English. She was the biggest reason math is my favorite subject.
Could play my story: Jamie Foxx.
Funniest thing recently: I was in the car, looking all over for my phone in the car when I had it in my hand the whole time.
A year from now, I will be: Playing for a conference championship, hopefully.
