@diamonddoesit1 I’m lying in my bed at Shirley Ryan rehabbing from a spinal tumor not knowing what my future brings and I see your piece on ESPN . You have provided me the inspiration to work hard towards full recovery . Thank you for sharing your story @Illinois_Stars

[ESPN Women's Hoops @ESPN_WomenHoop]

Just 21 months before winning a WNBA title with the Chicago Sky, Diamond DeShields had a tumor removed from her spine that left her with tremors and relearning how to walk.

@diamonddoesit1 tells her story to @sportsiren and @OTLonESPN.

Special thanks to PJ Pipes (@pipes_pj) for coming back to speak to our HS teams about the "hunger" that drove him through high school and his decision to head to @SantaClaraHoops for hoops, Business Grad School and warmer weather! 🏀📚☀️🌴

The day after scoring a career-high 22 pts vs. Marquette PJ Pipes (@pipes_pj ) pops into our virtual basketball practice to talk shooting, defense, setting goals, best arenas & his new life as a vegan (he REALLY misses Chipotle). @gbphoenixmbb @ny2lasports @IBAHoops1 #ProudCoach

Carthage is getting a helluva a player with character and Heart. There’s not a shot @GarrettHorner doesn’t like and won’t take. He will stretch Ds and will give the opponent coaches headaches. Love this kid. #ILSSTARSSHINE @Illinois_Stars @IBAHoops1

Following the recommendations of the CDC/Governor Pritzker we will limit capacity to under 250 people at our IBA tryouts on Sunday. We ask all players, coaches and parents to remain vigilant in being sanitary. If you are sick/ medically at-risk you can attend makeup tryouts.

@michaelsobrien Season over

[IBA Hoops @IBAHoops1]

IHSA cancelling the rest of the tournament ...@Illinois_Stars @michaelsobrien @kevin_schmit

[Kevin Schmit @kevin_schmit]

Mood not good here at Hinsdale South. Sense is that the impending IHSA phone call will be a call to cancel.

[Illinois Stars IBA @Illinois_Stars]

The UAA & UA Rise platforms are something special! IBA/ Illinois Stars are proud to rep Illinois & Unleash Chaos! High School tryouts on Sunday 5-7 PM @ IBA (Naperville location) including a few spots for uncommitted/unsigned Seniors left.
