Dear Isaiah Thomas, Just like you people always doubted me because of my size. There was some moments in times when I just wanted to give up the sport, I would tell myself, “ you aren’t good enough to make it pro, so why even join the team.”

Then one day I was watching the Celtics play Cavaliers in the semi-finals and I saw you. A man defying all the odds against him, because of his size, leading his team to the win against LeBron James and the Cavs. You guys eventually lost the series, but come on that’s LeBron.

All this made me realize that my dreams are just as reachable as yours was when you were my age. I have been putting in that work, training harder than anybody, just so I can play professional basketball just like you. You inspired me to keep my dreams alive and inspire others.

I picked Kobe Bryant as my role model.I picked him because he has been a role model for me since i was a little boy. Kobe is a very hardworking he went straight from high school to the NBA. That tells you a lot 1.he is very talented 2. He was very determined.

Kobe Bryant has got 5 rings on his hands. Kobe has made a difference in my life in my games and in general. Kobe Bryant is an example of hard work and discipline. He committed his life to the NBA.

He motivates me to commit my life to everything that i do. We only have live life on earth once so i might as well go in on everything i do. I want to embed my name into a household name like Kobe Bryant....FROM ONE OF MY STUDENTS, THX
