Upper body Mondays and Thursdays and then on Wednesdays I do conditioning so Tuesdays I’ll be doing legs before our team workout see this is why I can’t play an outdoor sport because it is raining outside that’s why I play Indoor Sports man you don’t got to worry about no
Rain no no snow I mean even though I’m in Florida it’s not going to snow here but you know what I mean imagine the amount of times I’ve walk down this hallway I’ve been here for 5 years my favorite basketball shoes to hoop in are the Kyrie tul Low’s um I
Actually like these shoes so much that I bought two other pairs of Kyrie tul Low’s um one in Gray and one in white today I’m going to wear the gray ones no specific reason I I just I just like them hey you know what I’m saying man fit check all right I’m done All right guys I’m currently in the tub uh this one right here and uh it feels good feels good but we have a team left in about an hour so I’m going to be in here for about another 10 minutes and then I’m going to put on my team
Uniform and get ready to lift and practice I know as athletes We complain about like conditioning and running but like honestly I don’t know where else I would rather be all right you gotta answer me this question who on the team would you not let date your daughter probably uh

Yessir I just started actually learning how to play basketball so I can join my middle team. And I watch you all the time for inspiration. When I look at your videos I look on how you shoot and how you really play, and I try to add that into my own game when I practice. Thanks for making these amazing videos. ❤

I love you, Dakota you’re my inspiration keep playing hard

yo Dakota I just wanna say one thing, You are so inspirational and a hard worker, and I respect that. Do you have any tips on having confidence on the court? I'm in grade 7 and i'm on the school basketball team and I lack confidence in game (I have an exhibition game next month). Im good/shifty when im just practicing but in games I just seem to give up the ball a lot to my teammates which I want to not do as much. Also thank you for your amazing vids keep working!
I love your videos, you inspire me so much to keep working. Keep doing what youre doing man
