In my free time, I love hanging out with my friends and playing my favorite sport, which is basketball. I play year round and train during the off-season. Growing up around a lot of boys, I enjoy watching sports. I was new to SPA last year and I used to go to Mounds Park Academy.

Something you might not know about me is that LeBron James is my half brother. Just kidding. That would be ridiculous. However, LeBron and I do live similar lifestyles. Our friends often mistake us for one another.
