The kid, she shows up. Kid is 6'6". I mean, ripped. 14. 14 years old. And she says, he's going to be a great basketball player. He's going to grow. His dad was 6'10", and he's going to grow. So I worked the kid out. He takes 25 jumpers in close, 10 feet around the rim, made one. Okay, I moved him out a little bit. Five air balls.

And so I sit him down on the side and I said, you know, what do you like to do? And he started talking about all the things he likes to do. And he started talking about his instruments and he likes to play in the band and all of that. And not one time did he mention basketball. I looked at the mother. I said, miss, I'm going to give you your money back. And I charged her like a grand.

I said, I'm going to give you your money back. And I am telling you, if you don't want to lose your kid, you need to let him be in the band. I am telling you, he does not want to play basketball. She started crying. I mean, literally. Because she knew deep down. I had to grab this lady. She was like distraught.

And I told her, and then I went over there and took over to him and I said, son, what do you like to do? Band. Yeah. And so to me, that's like, it reminds me of Zion. Like he was made to play basketball. They want him to play basketball. And I just wonder at times, does he really like want to play at a high level? And, and I've, I've said that about numerous guys. It's not just Zion.
