Dante's Story

My passion is basketball. I’m passionate about basketball because I am always willing to go beyond my limits and expectations to continue improving. In basketball, there is always room for improvement. I always aim to expand my knowledge of the game, and to better my skills of competing against other opponents. I try my best to challenge myself to improve everyday.

I'm really passionate about attending US Sports Nike Basketball Camp because I want to improve my game. They will let me know exactly what I need to work on, what my strengths and weaknesses are, and how I can improve on them.

A Note from Ms. Plasencia, Dante's Teacher

Dante is an eloquent, expressive, & creative student. Although he finds some limitations to achieve his goals, he still works hard to put aside any challenge. I can see the passion for Basketball in his eyes and he is trying his best to improve not only in the court but also in the classroom.

I strongly believe Dante is good candidate for US Sports Nike Basketball Camp. Not only he is a great player, but he also wants to improve his game and discipline. I believe it will give him more confidence to work on the strategies he needs to develop. It will ultimately allow him to achieve his goals in life. I believe this a great opportunity for him!

This summer

The way I am preparing for this summer is by practicing more like using my left hand, defense, driving more to the paint, and mid range shots. At the program, I will be playing basketball against others so that it can help me achieve my goal.
