Beautiful family — kudos to her for raising 6 kids, holding it down and doing what she wants — and great motivational tatt!
Dear media, please don’t keep hyping kids that already have clout — put in the work to help these kids that need it most - find the ones that people don’t know about! These kids need you more and are more appreciative— I challenge you this weekend! 🏀🎯✅
I hate seeing kids frustrated while they are playing because their parents are coaching them from the stands — this is a disservice to your child, their team, the others parents and the coach. Parents please do better.
PSA: WE NEED SHOT CLOCKS IN NEVADA~~~ we need a business to step up and sponsor shot clocks in these high school gyms — stall ball is NOT basketball — please help the kids for real — too much money in this town for this to continue 🏀💯🗣
If I had a trainer that took my money to train my kid but constantly had their cell phone in the kid’s face recording their entire training — I would re-evaluate that trainer — lil Bobby needs fundamentals not followers

My Dad is out of ICU and off of oxygen!!! God is so good! He’s still got a recovery journey ahead of him, but what a relief!!!
Thank you to EVERYONE that reached out!! Power of prayer! ❤️🩹🙏🏼
Please send all Prayers out to my Daddy who is about to go in for quintuple bypass surgery this morning …. He’s gonna come out of this a whole new man!

Good morning! Waking up in Arizona so these Nevada kids can hoop. Just to put things in perspective— Nevada is the only state to cancel HS basketball — this is EMBARASSING!!! (Thanks to

@GovSisolak
this isn’t a good look - AT ALL
Basketball is about the kids. Period. It’s NOT about all the adults and egos surrounding our youth on the court— we ALL must buy into this & do better or the kids ultimately pay the price. And isn’t what this is all for? The kids?
Surgery went AMAZING! All blockages taken care of — all 5!!! He’s off the respirator and doing well— thank you for all the well wishes… still a recovery road ahead for Dad but I’m so happy!!!! 🙏🏼❤️🩹
I hadn’t talked to my oldest son since Oct 2020. We had some differences & we hadn’t communicated since.
He finally called me today 🥹🥰
I was overwhelmed with emotions — I didn’t realize how much weight I had been carrying around by us not being “ok”
Never again💜
To those that say the

“Professional sports won’t do well in Vegas” 😂😂😂
PLAYERS!!! Keep your grades & academics in order!!! The minimum GPA for D1 eligibility is 2.3 (AND either 900 SAT or 75 ACT) — D2 is 2.2 and 840 SAT or 70 ACT— college hoops can’t be played if you aren’t being a good student too!

Saw this little boy light up when Bronny walked in the gym. I grabbed his hand and walked him over to him & got him a photo opp — such an awesome moment!
Bronny loves the kids 🥰💯✅🏀

win wasn’t even Sports page front cover worthy this morning in the RJ ??!!— if our own paper doesn’t support local sports who will? A 40 second TKO vs a 40 min game with a HOME COLLEGE team who is now 6-1 in conference folks! Do better
@reviewjournal
Ok I have to comment - if a player can’t commit to a HS and they bounce around more times than the number of years they should even BE in HS — how do these college coaches even offer a kid and think they will be loyal to their program? It’s sad and it’s a problem for real.
Safe travels to EVERYONE as we begin the first 🏀 LIVE period!
Regardless of shoe you rep or if you’re a dope independent team, the goal is to get these players scholarships & an opportunity to hoop at the next level.
Don’t forget the purpose. Be safe,
Play hard,
Dream big.
New blessings in my hoop journey! 🙏🏼🏀
I am pleased to announce the partnership between my company, Hoop Hospitality, and The PHHacility! Bringing you 9 events in the next 6 months! We will be working together to bring top notch events to Phoenix!

@ThePHHacility
I help parents with players that need looks— for FREE— my TIME, gas, reaching out to coaches — all that —-so don’t question me asking you to text me all of you and your child’s info to make MY life easier to help YOU— Entitlement is rampant— be grateful not TAKEFUL!!!! 🏀✅
Continued prayers for my Dad please - quintuple bypass was Thursday but he is still in ICU and has some tough hurdles — Portland’s COVID protocols are still tight so I can’t even visit him yet 😭

Welp! I completed another trip around the ☀️!!!
I’m extremely grateful for my life, my heartbeats 💗, my circle ⭕️ and most importantly my peace & new found happiness ♾️🫶🏼💜

I protested tonight for my friends, my hoopers, my coaches, my mentors, MY OWN Bi-racial CHILDREN and my family members that are black and PROUD to be in their own skin and DESERVE justice and equality. So there’s that.

I don’t care what program you rep - if you’re assisting players w/scholarships so they can continue to play the game they love then you’re good in my book
#BiggerPicture
It’s called VIP because the WNBA is important as are the women who play in the league — maybe you missed that memo — follow
@ariivory
if you need to be reminded
For the record - There are kids in Elem / MS / HS that are on basketball teams that
actually play for fun & don’t care about being in / winning in the top divisions of tourneys — & there’s NOTHING wrong with that — it’s ok to play and NOT play for a scholarship 🙏🏼🏀💯🫶🏼
Thank you to Amauri Hardy, Trey Woodbury, Nick Blair and Bryce Hamilton for believing in the Rebel brand and UNLV — excited for the upcoming season and how this staff and our team roster will pan out!

Home from hospital - no heart issues - just COVID leaving it’s mark on my lungs & it will heal in time.
Just gotta take it easy …. And you all know that is not something I am good at but will try— thank you for all the tweets, texts and calls —you all showed mad love

I’m at 3k legit Twitter followers —- I will continue to block the users with no pic, the sugar daddies thinkin’ I’m about that life & athletic wear companies wanting to sell me overseas gear — I tweet abt hoops and positive vibes — thank u for the support ya’ll! 🏀✅❤️🔥🙏🏽
We need to be proud of the kids and teams that won yesterday. Stop taking shots at teams, players, etc and CELEBRATE these student athletes! They didn’t even have a damn season last year!
It’s time to proud of VEGAS HOOPS as a whole and stop the negativity. Period.
Just stop. No they wouldn’t. Are they talented? Yes. Great team? Yes. But they are not beating a D1 team NOR winning ANY CBB conference.
We wonder why some players think they are better than they are - get to the next level— and their game doesn’t translate.
This Montverde team can beat a lot of Division 1 basketball teams
They would win a handful of conferences and are coached by one of the best in the world at any level
I do what I can when I can for these players of Las Vegas — can I make it to every game? No. But God knows I put every ounce of me into these kids, this sport and our city — I do this on my OWN. Don’t ever tell me I don’t support Vegas kids or a particular program. I support ALL!
You can try and steal from Daishen and then NOPE ...Daishen Nix with the MONSTER block !!! 🏀✅🔥🎯 Trinity 45- Findlay 38 -7/27 left in 4th quarter

@SimplyFunBball
I miss basketball so much I tried to hoop last night — put up a couple shots- made them - got cocky — and then got crossed up by an 8 year old and ended up on the ground 😂😂😂🏀—- we really need hoops back before I hurt myself
Offers don’t just come after one event — events are platforms to showcase players/teams—-these coaches are talking to a LOT of people in a player’s circle before offering (including their Club AND HS coach), previous coaches, trainers, and others they respect in the hoop scene.
LET’S JUST LET THESE KIDS HOOP! All these egos and other stuff is wack— seriously! My program , my this, my that, my kid, I trained him , that team took my player, whine, whine—-I feel bad for players when all this goes on— it’s EXTRA and unnecessary 🏀🗣
#VegasGetRight
Parents please be advised ...this is your child’s future NOT yours 🏀🗣 A free education > than nothing at all —- D1 isn’t the answer for everyone — look at facts and stop listening to the peanut gallery —- this is sad to say the least
For all of you that think some of what I say is hard to believe...here is actual proof. Just received this from a parent of a 2019 player that has NO offers aside from what I assisted them in obtaining. Read this. They aren’t on Twitter by the way..I wouldn’t do that.
Sunday topic: I would like to propose that along with shot clock 💰 we add CERTIFIED FULL stat keepers ✔️ — I wanna know percentages 💯 / rebounds/ assists / steals / blocks & turnovers — & coaches be obligated to post such stats within 24 hours — what ur thoughts twitter?
Not everyone can organize and run a SUCCESSFUL hoop event —- it’s not as easy as we make it look. 🙏🏼🏀✅
There are MANY layers to this — yrs of building organic relationships while navigating all personalities, egos & politics — we don’t just schedule games & refs 💯
Must read!!! And If you have seen the video it’s sickening!!!
Prayers up to Perry! Our referees are putting their lives in harms way for hoops and our kids!!!
Ban this coach from gyms for LIFE! He’s BEEN an issue for years!! We need to do better!!!
Wow my friend is gone. RIP Coach Wes — former

@dedanthomasjr
Stop saying a kid is slept on if they don’t compete & perform against the highest level teams and/or they really just don’t have the “it” factor.
High level basketball isn’t for everyone and everyone is not an elite player. Period.

Man I still can’t believe my dude is gone ..we lost an asset to the Vegas youth hoop scene… I knew Wes since 93 when I got to Vegas. Met on UNLV campus & had a 28 year friendship; always had my back… rest easy homie ur already missed

Honestly, LaMelo Ball opting for overseas play is going to be more commonplace that you think in the years to come-- money spoke & he doesn't have to deal with NCAA and their rules--- every player has a different path--- this path will be more traveled though watch!
I am here for these kids and hoops and that will NEVER change. My mission is bigger than your attempted detours & I’m here to stay. I make a difference in kid’s lives and in this community and you will not stop me. Trust that. You just motivated me even more. Thank you.
If anyone ever needs a ride home that has been drinking/drugging/ tired/ whatever - I have a vehicle and will get you home safely — please stop driving. There’s nothing to debate - people are dying and I’m sick of it.
Every HS sports program should be REQUIRED to video record ALL of their sanctioned games (at minimum), as well as provide to each player, VALID game stats.
Digital video of the recorded game & stats to be released to rostered players that request it.
~Thread 1 of 4~
I’m so salty that NASCAR is about to have 12k+ fans at their event but we can’t have 2 basketball teams, 2 refs, a couple coaches and parents watch our Nevada youth play hoops in their OWN state — make it make sense
@LetThemPlaySoNV
Never got a room last night… been in ER since noon yesterday and waiting on stress test and EKG — that January COVID tore my lungs / heart up apparently but I will be back.
Thanks to all the coaches and staff
