is now pushing 6’1, along with increasing his explosiveness 💥. He’s elite with the ball in his hands, the maestro of the offense, and a gutsy defender. Gets to the rim any time he chooses, makes his teammates better, and willing to do anything to win. Stock 📈
Due to a snow day, no Tweet was planned.
However, stumbled across this 😳. Guess we’re at it again. There’s no brotherhood like Central Avenue 🔥🔥. Family First.

That’s the vibe. Pride. Tradition. Family. 🏆🥇💯💙🖤. We appreciate all you next level coaches showing love!!!
