A kid that had a name known as TJ Comer that had a dream with a basketball was born in 1999, in the state of Indiana where basketball is known to be very popular and played at all ages. He started basketball when he was young at the age of 5 and he played at the YMCA. It then started to get important to him when as he grew to the age of 9 to 10 he started to play travel basketball. This ball has lead him all over the country and he caught a passion and love for it.
Which then lead to him taking it serious through middle school and becoming above average and have the opportunity to play into high school at a young age at Perry Meridian Highschool. He then started varsity as a sophomore and started to get some early college interest as he went through his high school career he began to level off as a player because he didn’t have the intangibles to make him a next level player at a division 1 school.
Once he realized he wasn’t chosen to hoop he used basketball to open doors for himself and others around him. He used his determination and hard work that he learned through playing basketball and understanding the grind. He walked out of basketball successful and he didn’t even get what he set out to get and that was the NBA he got something even better. He got a mindset that he took away from basketball that will live and work for him forever and basketball also gifted him in other athletic ways to which he than gave football a try and got a scholarship. He is now attending Marian University to play football. He’s grateful for what basketball has done for himself and it has built him up to be the man he is today.
