Hoop Dreams

by Kimani Hill
(Kinston, NC USA)

I have been playing basketball all my life. Trying to follow the foot steps of my Dad who attended New Hanover high school and was Michael Jordans rival.

I played AAU up until high school. Played in middle school where I averaged 24 points a game. Played Varsity all years of High School At Heidie Trask in Rocky Point nc. I averaged 18 pts 6 rebs and 4 ast my senior year. I was only a few point away from the 1000 point mark when I graduated.

I was named all area 1st team and all conference all of my years. I had about 7 scholarships to 4 year schools but bombed my SAT. So I currently play at Lenoir Junior College in Kinston nc. Im 6ft 170lbs I bench press 265 squat 515 my 40 time is 4.41.

I work out daily to stay in shape and to make myself and team better. I think I can fit into any program being that Ima an all around player. I still have a few scholarships on the table but I really want to take my talents overseas to experience something different and for the competition level.

I am dedicated and determined to make my teammates better I have good sportsmanship and a good work ethic. I am also the cousin Jared Dudley who currently plays in the NBA for the Phoenix Suns.

This has been my dream for a long time now and I believe God will help me conquer it. Whoever decides to give me a shot I promise you wont be sorry.I hope to hear something soon God Bless.
