Got to tell Chauncey a couple things:
1. I grew up in Japan waking up at 2, 3 in the morning to watch his Pistons play with my Dad. ๐ฏ๐ต๐
2. That he was someone great I looked up to. Hard work, team work, and respect; principles I gleaned and shaped me into an adult. โน๐ป
I think itโs important to acknowledge people when they had a direct impact in your life. Congrats Mr. Big Shot on the HOF ๐ฅ
Those Pistons made me love basketball. Basketball helped me create friends when I came to the US. When my basketball career ended my camera career began. I worked hard and it led to this full circle moment. ๐ซ
In my journey, I realize when one dream ends another one begins. And that thereโs more than 1 way to โmake it to the league.โ ๐๐ธ
