Tell me you’re from Atlanta without telling me you’re from Atlanta. First song on when I hopped in the car.
Have said this for years. Run your own race. “Comparison is the theft of joy”
Players: Do NOT worry about seeing people around you get offers, or comparing yourself—stay focused on YOU and on the work. Fun fact: some of the clout chasing stuff isn’t even real, and some of it will evaporate in real time. In short, control what you can control.

Michael Jordan on the pursuit of stats. “That never drove me…I’d never have retired in 1993…I’d still be chasing Kareem’s scoring lead. That doesn’t drive me…It’s all about winning championship’s and winning. Stats that matter to me is rings that you collect.”
Excited to bring these two communities together for what promises to be a great day!
🚨🚨🚨Announcing the 2026 Charlotte vs. Columbia Challenge on January 3rd, 2026 at Heathwood Hall. This promises to be a great event between two basketball enthusiastic communities. Save the date for a great day of hoops!

6’4 2026 Xander Pertile @XPertile @HHESMBB Despite the teams poor performance Xander competed at a high level. Sacrificing his body for loose balls, multiple offensive & defensive rebounds. He gives a great effort on the floor - high motor forward that impacts winning.
11 years ago, you made me the happiest and luckiest man around—even though you almost didn’t show up to “girls dinner” 😉 Best answer to a question I’ve ever asked anyone in my life. Love you endlessly.
P5!!!

As I see videos of all these guys working on their game, all they ever do is work on their combo dribble moves. Once the game starts only one or 2 guys actually use the combo dribble moves throughout game. I wonder if anyone has individual workouts to learn how to: Cut, angles…
Let the story begin. Meet our freshman, Lauren Jacobs! @LaurenJacobs25 | #HottyToddy
Congrats Rico! 🔴🔵⚪️ 4L
Proverbs 3:5-6 Excited to begin this next chapter! Blessed to announce I’ve accepted an Assistant Men’s Basketball Coaching position at the University of Rio Grande. Through trials and tribulations—always prevail. 🙏🏾

MASSIVE game from @XPertile playing for @UpwardStarsCola 15 pts and 14 boards in an OT win at @Phenom_Hoops in Raleigh, NC Coaches, Xan has inside/out skills at 6’5”and is a beast on the glass. Glass men get PAID. High academic and Coaches, get on him!
A no brainer college player.
Big time game for @Henrymorris_22 w/ @PchBasketball today in Richmond. 15pts/8reb/4ast/1stl 6’5” w/versatile skill set. Bounce around the rim, shooting touch from 3, & length to protect the hoop. Switchable on D. Coaches, DO NOT MISS OUT @CoachBenatorHH @Sgortman2 @NickSwisha
Love these dudes. Ready to get back to work soon!
Sneak peak from the summer for 25-26. Is it November yet?
Monster performance from Henry! Showed his athleticism grabbing boards and finishing above the rim! At 6’6 he’s a very skilled player being able to put it on the floor and start the break and a really good shooter! Keep your eyes peeled on this kid 🔥🔥 @TreySterner5345
