We gotta stop doing these kids a disservice by only acknowledging offensive skills. I don’t care what the level is, YOU WILL NOT PLAY AS A FRESHMAN IN COLLEGE IF YOU CAN’T/DON’T DEFEND !!!!
I am so proud of

Absolutely love this group! These young men took our program to the next level. Thank you to everyone who supported us...your presence was felt and made a huge difference. The boys finished at 36-3. Our 5 seniors won a combined 16 district championships...over 3 per player!
On behalf of the Bates family I would like to thank the Houston basketball community for embracing
@Ajbates_24
and accepting him as one of y’all own. We really didn’t know what to expect when we moved here from SoCal almost 5 years ago,but you guys welcomed us with open arms.
This the time of the year when coaches has to let their Dudes be Dudes! Ain’t no point of having guys that can go, if you gone put a 1000 restraints on them! Y’all coaches know the kids that’s putting in that work outside of practice, start treating them like y’all do !!!!

Uncommitted high school seniors with committable offers, please commit while you can. These college coaches have to do what’s best for their program and sometimes that means moving on from you !
From experience, the best coaches I’ve played for or coached with all established a pecking order . That pecking order is determined by your talent and the amount of work that you put in. You can’t control how much natural talent you have, but how hard you work is all up too you!
High School guards, PLEASE WATCH WHAT STEPH DO WHEN HE’S OFF THE BALL ! I’m 99.99% sure that you can’t shoot like him, but you can mimic what he do off the ball !!!!
I got a serious question. I’m gone start off by saying that I know basketball is a team sport and that the guys around you matter and all situations aren’t equal. But if you’re consider a “dude” shouldn’t you be able to get your team to the playoffs? THIS IS NOT A SHOT @ ANYONE!
