My Love for basketball has been right since my childhood. I have always been the second tallest in class then 6.2ft tall, 188cm. I fell in love with basketball because it has always been my interest and I love the way basketball games look, it looks fun to me. I remember trying to focus on my full career in basketball and wanted to pay for a sports coach maybe I might get recruited into the basketball leagues in the future because I had a full passion for the game.

I have always been watching so many youtube highlights of Kobe Bryant, LeBron James, Shaquille, and several others, but damn I enjoyed watching those during these times. It felt like a motivation to me then to be like this star player, sometimes when am alone I imagine myself in a crowd of people and showing my skills, if only I could be a basketball star I would put on more work to myself to be a better person.

I remember I watched some basketball movies that felt like a real motivation. Watching Uncle Drew and Magic Johnson movie was a real motivation then, it wasn’t an easy journey it was all about determination and zeal and life has taught us, and this movie that we must surround ourselves with people who see the bigger pictures of our dreams with us if not it will be killed within us, because there is seemingly no motivation and the pressure was serious around. These were men who fought their way through out of no motivation to be a better version of themself in other not to be carried away by things around them.

I was on the court that morning when I heard kobe bryant died, we were about to practice basketball, and I felt like damn because he was a real motivation to so many basketball players and I enjoyed his games.
I love basketballers' lifestyles, the tallness, the love from ladies, and the attention and respect they get, sometimes I wish I was professionally good at basketball so that all the world could see how good I am, and people from different countries watch me play the game.

Every Saturday and Sunday evening I often meet up with my friends to play the game of basketball, we are not professionals but our interest and passion for the games make us put in our best and practice every weekend, no one knows how tomorrow might look like, I wish to be drafted by NBA, it will be like a dream come through to me. This is one major reason I always make sure to practice almost every day and imagine myself being good in it every day because I am still young to be recruited before it gets late, I have seen players that started playing late and because NBA standard players why shouldn’t I be, but I will be much happier if I can be recruited by any teams in the NCCA college basketball teams, I heard some come to Africa to get players and sponsors their colleges tutoring also.

Basketball is really a nice and admirable game. I didn't start with it while growing but later got to develop a liking for it. One part I like about the game when I watch is those dunks and nice three points shots.
