These 3 first touched a ball in that Oxon Hill Boys & Girls Club Blue & Gold uniform. Tonight seeing these 3 interact was Priceless. WUSA 9 will be interviewing me to speak about the 40 years of my life dedicated to DMV hoops and our youth. McDonald's All-American. Duke Great. NBA notable. 14/14 from the 3pt line in the G league recently is phenomenal. Praying you'll sign with a team soon during the NBA Allstar break. Love you champ. Continued success 2 one of Oxon Hill's Best!

Trust God & the Process My Son. It's not how you start, it's how you finish. 6 Games Remain in Your Sophomore Season. Always Remember: You Were Overlooked; Stayed Away from Basketball for 2 Years 2 Care 4 Your Mom and Thought You were Behind; You're a True Sophomore; Honor Student Athlete with a 3.9 GPA; Your 1st Varsity Game is Coming Soon; Now You're Dunking with Authority & Most Importantly You're a Better Person than you are Player. This Should Motivate You to be the BEST Version of Yourself, When You Compete from Now On. Mom is Proud and so am I. Getting Better is the ONLY Option, Reclassing Is NOT.

My Heart is Filled with Joy. I want 2 THANK Each & Everyone of You that has Prayed, Poured into, Encouraged & Supported My Children. Full Circle Faith. Red Reaper your Brother's Former Coach, IMG Academy's Sean McAloon, last saw you in a Stroller & to see you stand at his height and converse was fulfilling. While @ GW & the University of Delaware your Brother was often greeted by young aspiring basketball players after games and to see you Surrounded by that same energy, after your Exceptional Performance last night & beating a tenacious DeMatha team was Priceless. My JOY doesn't come from your stats versus DeMatha.
23 Points, FG-10/14, 3 Point FG-3/4, 5 Rebounds, 4 Assists & 3 Steals. My JOY doesn't come from being down by 20 points against Good Counsel and scoring 43 to help your team win. My JOY comes from your Selflessness, not being Arrogant like I once was & allowing your heavenly Father to always shine thru you my Son. Coach Mike Jones, Head Coach DeMatha, thank you for your encouraging words always. Mohamad thank you for bringing your entire team to watch the Red Reaper. And Father Thank You for Allowing Me to have a Front Row Seat to Watch Your Son Utilize the Gifts you Blessed him with. Merry Christmas Everyone!
