Aiden is a dynamic athlete with ball-handling solid ability and shifty athleticism who is a lethal three-point sniper with smooth touch. But Aiden is anything but one emotional as he is explosive off the bounce with crafty moves and speed, attacking the rim with the intention of fierce finishes. Aiden has a high non-stop motor and is a ruthless lockdown defender.
Aiden's biggest basketball accomplishment is getting national attention already, but buckle up cause more are coming.
Aiden's biggest goal this upcoming season is to improve his playmaking skills to fuel his teammates and get them more engage understanding this will, in turn, open up Aiden's game up more as it will keep the defense honest and guessing exactly what he will do. Aiden's challenge is translating this into his game proving he is more than just a scorer and defender but a match-up nightmare as the total package.
Aiden is looking forward to playing Green Hills the most. Though Aiden is new to the area, he can feel the rivalry's intensity through the tension between the two teams. Aiden feels they can make a deep tournament run but knows it will take determination in practice, the weight room, and focus on game days.
What fuels Aiden's fire the most is someone trash-talking him. Aiden knows the moment that starts, and it will be a good game for him as it motivates him to elevate his game and silence the chatter, letting his performance speak loud and clear beyond words.
Aiden feels he is an excellent fit for playing at the D1 level and can thrive there.
Aiden handles adversity with confidence that he can get through or overcome anything that comes his way.
Aiden's interest outside of basketball is playing football, at which he also excels.
The best advice Aiden has ever heard was, "You gotta take what you have and outwork everyone to be better at it than anyone else who has it, or you will always be behind."
Aiden feels he is a perfect fit for a D1 level and believes he can not only play at that level but thrive being there, but he knows it will take dedication, hard work, prayer, long nights, belief in himself, and more hard work as he knows he has to push himself every day.
Aiden has intrest from a couple of schools but nothing serious yet but has purposed that this season the mission is to prove he is the real deal and turn some heads.
I assess that Aiden truly has a ton of high-level potential with the mindset and work ethic to match his skills. But the confident swagger and huger to thrive as he develops more and more will open some big doors for this young stud. Aiden has some rare intangibles and a lot of "DOGGG," which you just can't teach, and that will separate him from the pack as his game continues to evolve and improve. This rising star will shine bright this season and many years to come.
