never let her circumstances stop her from achieving her dreams. And even cooler is how she gives back to her community every day! This is where that TOUGHNESS comes from ❤️❤️❤️

Boston YMCA’s are once again offering FREE memberships for teens in the city. Please spread the word and help keep our kids active and engaged this summer
Parents/coaches: PLEASE have your kid watch college hoops (all divisions) before you tell a school recruiting you that you think your kid is above their level. You have no idea what you’re missing out on. Kids wanna play at the next level have no idea what it actually looks like
From the Notre Dame headband, to becoming the first female basketball player to sign with Puma, Sky has used fashion as a vehicle for visibility.
As Women’s History Month continues, so does our celebration of the trailblazers on our roster.
Rest in Paradise young legend! The entire city is in tears for the kid with the million dollar smile and game. What stood out to me was how much you loved your city. How you kept coming back and showed love to everybody in our hood. My heart goes out to his family and loved ones.

! Absolute legend!
I’ve seen kids from my neighborhood that should’ve been on national tv hooping, sleeping on Dorchester Ave clutching brown paper bags. I’ve seen city HS legends shaking cups for change. Idc how it comes off, when kids from here make it, I’m rooting for them like superheroes
Chamimade (a DII program) wipes Cal (PAC12) 96-72. Everyone is so concerned with divisions but don’t realize how damn good you have to be to play college hoops. Go where you fit!
New AAU low today. Dad dragged his son into a restroom stall. Dad is berating his son about his performance and saying he’s wasting his time. In a restroom stall. Sad sad sad
Proud proud moment! If folks only knew how hard she’s worked for this. The work ethic has always been on another level. Congratulations baby girl

, I’m excited to announce that I’ve received an offer from Boston University!
Defensive schemes today are actually genius. Players are more athletic and allowed to do less. But people just wanna see Bill Lambert tackle superstars worth $200 mil 🤦🏻♂️🤦🏻♂️
I keep seeing things about how there’s no defense in the NBA anymore...but what you’re doing is actually crediting how good the offense is....lol these guys are crazy good offensively...the best I’ve seen as a whole...you’re not stopping guys like that anymore...not like that!
Because we’re not talking about it enough, a Dorchester native is leading the COUNTRY in blocks per game and second in the COUNTRY in rebounds per game (1st in defensive rebounds). She also recently scored her 1K. S/O to

Before the start of the HS season she had 10,000 makes in 5 months. Workouts were 60 min or less. Last night, in a D2 MIAA state tournament game, Mi Chu dropped 28 points (6 treys) pas a 7th grader in a loss to Dighton-Rehoboth. Proud of my dookie face! Now onto AAU season!
Since the HS season starts next Monday, I just want to remind HS players that I’m not a miracle worker. You had all summer and fall to get those reps up. Don’t hit me with “I need to get in the lab with you” if I haven’t seen you all summer. Thanks.
Hate that this is even a thing but if you’re a parent going to your kid’s AAU game, please don’t pull out a gun. Please don’t bring a gun inside the venue. If you do, you’re a loser. You are 100% a certified LOSER. Seeing those kids running terrified hurts, man. Ridiculous
No parent should have to bury their child. The fact it happened right in my neighborhood hits too close to home. My prayers go out to her family. Parents: hug your children a little tighter tonight. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I like wearing my mask in indoor public spaces. I don’t question you if you don’t. Do what’s comfortable for you. Please don’t ask me why I’m wearing my mask. Cuz the answer is your mother’s a dumbass every single time
I can’t emphasize this enough…if you’re a parent and think your child is above D3 hoops, chances are they’re not. Like…95% chance they’re not. Come check out a game and get a dose of reality
I normally don’t celebrate my bday anymore because I’m washed. Past years I turn off my social media or change my bday to avoid it. But in 2020, so many people won’t get to see their next bday so I felt like celebrating this year. I’m weird. Thankful for my family and friends!
Congratulations to

for signing his first professional contract with the DBL Sheffield Sharks in the UK! He’s been grinding with new Hardwood Jungle coach, Alex!
If you’re ducking opponents in fear of your kids losing or getting embarrassed, you’re stunting their development for the sake of your own ego. Nothing helps build character like a good old fashioned ass whooping

Syracuse bound guard, Brycen Goodine, was pure entertainment this past weekend. His 6’4 lanky frame combined with his athleticism made him impossible to cover in transition. One of the most consistent scorers in the entire tournament.

Happy birthday to my baby girl! I always tell you that one day you’ll take over the world. Just let me hold your hand a little longer until you get there. Love you Mi Chu ❤️
“One thing that really irritates me is hearing ballers say they should be in the NBA. How they are so much better than Steve Kerr or any guard relegated to the bench. Yo, money, Steve Kerr will give you 50!”

Roti, Pho, Jamaican, Haitian, Thai, Dominican, Cuban, Soul food spots all within our neighborhoods. That’s not counting spots outside of the city lines
On another note, AAU is still nuts. The politics just ain’t for me. I have my mission outside of hoops. I just try to show love to everyone that I can and try to keep it positive. Don’t bring your bad vibes my way cuz idc. Hope everyone got home safe from their travels!

Just a reminder that AAU defense isn’t HS/college defense. All that clapping and “yeeeeaaaah” doesn’t get you stops. Refs will blow the whistle on the hand checking

workout on my IG rn. I know there’s a lot of discussion with block and variable training. I’m a big fan of mixing both. Full vid here:
Had a heart to heart with Mi Chu. My rep for being super hard on her is justified. But it’s not lost on me that she’s a kid that needs to hear positive things too. Told her how proud I am of her growth this past year. Kid got teary eyed. This is the relationship I needed as a kid

is one of the top sophomores in the region. Sure, you can argue that she’s only doing it in MIAA blah blah blah. But the way she has carried NQ all season, I’d like to see your fav PG produce the way she did all season. Congrats on a historic season homegirl!
People love asking me, an Asian American, for film and advice on how to coach their teams or train their players but agreeing with anti Asian posts and tweets? FOH
The city of Boston is just going to continue to ignore that a serial killer has been dumping bodies in the Charles River for years. All the deaths are similar. All of the victims have commonalities.
Idc how many times I tweet this but parents/coaches that badmouth other kids in an attempt to elevate their own kids are LOSERS. You don’t have confidence in your own kid, so you project that insecurity onto others especially when you see everyone else with success.

My young boy (10 yrs old) in my hood just lost his mother to drugs. Buried her today. He once told me he hated her cuz she was abusive. Today he cried when they put her under. When we talked I didn’t have any answers. The things these babies go through...
This should be shared by EVERY SINGLE COACH! On the Shooting Touch or NM bench, I’m the coach. When I’m at Mi Chi’s school games, I’m a spectator. Even if you feel the coach isn’t doing a great job, it’s not your place in the stands to start coaching.
In a world where connections matter, it’s equally important to be great. I coached 4th graders. I wanted to be the best 4th coach ever. If you coach JV, be the best JV coach ever. Competitiveness is contagious, so is the love. Next generation will be ok if we impact them directly
Wolves Den gym in Pembroke is the ugliest AAU site in MA. Just mismatched colors everywhere and the structural layout is like a half finished game of Jenga. It makes me feel like I’m walking to different themed rooms as you pass every court
The truest form of love I can give is preparing you for a life after you leave the nest. I know how special you are & can’t wait til the rest of the world finds out. Happy bday to my favorite girl in the world! A scholar, athlete, community leader, professional sleeper
