THE STORY
With all the racial discrimination and chaos that is going on in the world, I wanted to find a different way to allow the voices of kids to be heard. Often times when I get frustrated about things my mother tells me, it’s okay to be frustrated but when you’re frustrated you still have to make good choices.
This is a motto that I use both on and off the basketball court. I believe this motto can help other kids remember the importance of making good choices. So I created REACT and the meaning behind it is to Think, Anticipate, Pursue. The purpose of my clothing line is to encourage other kids to Think before they make a move, Anticipate the outcomes and Pursue only the best decisions.
Basketball continues to help me understand the importance of strategic thinking and making the best decision in the moment. When I make good choices without fear and I see the positive outcome of those choices, it helps me learn to believe in myself.
REACT is a simple clothing line designed to empower athletes to make good choices and believe in themselves. It also offers athletes the ability to use their voice to speak up against the chaos that is negatively impacting our world. Each of the shirts included in my REACT collection are personally selected, designed and created by me.
