Nobody talks about the lonely part.

“People always talk about talent, but what they don’t wanna talk about is loneliness. The empty gym…”

- Larry Bird

Confidence.
Nobody gives it to you.
You build it rep by rep.
In the gym when no one’s watching. https://t.co/4zIilqfX40

There are currently 2,000+ basketball players stuck in the transfer portal.

Many Division I coaches have already said they’re done recruiting high school athletes.

Insane.

Nazareth won its super-sectional on Monday in part because of its stout defense and the contributions of senior guard Lyla Shelton and junior guard Sophia Towne.
