Even though the odds are daunting, the mission of every athlete is to play on the highest level. So many young athletes dream of playing pro sports, but the sometimes-toxic allure of fame and big money can warp an athlete and their family’s judgment. The statistics are daunting. 10 million athletes play basketball every year. Of that 10 million, only 900 thousand will play high school basketball, and of that 900 thousand, only 5 thousand will play college basketball. And of that 5 thousand, only 96 college basketball players will be drafted by NBA teams each year. This journey does not happen overnight. It is a process that takes years of hard work and dedication and quite frankly a whole lot of luck!
