Is when I was 5 years old in the picture above... The entirety of the memory is foggy but remember looking up at the rim leaning as if it were a skyscraper clearly, it was the first time I took a shot on a 10 foot rim so I excited to prove to my father and myself that I could make it...And that's exactly what I did, somehow managed to bank it in. Sure it wasn't a basketball but it made me fall in love with the game. It's nice being able to have a picture of that exact moment, though I relive the anticipation I felt then every time I put one up today.
What's yours?

What's yours?
I can't really recall, i "was born with a ball in my hands".
My father is coach and the relative that i followed growing up (my cousin) was a player too.
I guess my first bucket in official games is the oldest memory that i will never forget. In a u10 age game, after the ball tip i had the ball in my hands.. dribble to wrong side and shoot a 3 pointer and i made it IN THE WRONG BASKET
