15. "I just knew the moment I wasn't gonna be a hooper" In response to In response to 13
Went the same way as football. You can only be so good and try so hard before physical talent takes over. My dad put me on his 16u team when I was 13. I had the body of a 12 year old. Everyone else on the team was at least 6 feet. We had two dudes that were 6'10, one dude that could jump out of the gym that was 6'7, another dude that would go on to play multiple lettered sports at UT Austin, he was like 6'2. I had to be like 5'4 maybe.
I got dunked on one time. That was enough.
