Diary Of A Baller: Jaquan Harris (North Brunswick, NJ) Entry #8

Jaquan Harris

What’s Up Basketball Spotlight World, It’s Jaquan Harris and I’m back with my Diary Of A Baller. Here’s how my week went. 

Monday: I took a day off from boxing and just went to the gym on the weekend we had our last session in Elevate Hoops Proving grounds so I had to be on my best. I worked out extra hours with my shot to make sure I would be the most confident I can be. When I’m confident is when it’s the hardest to stop me. Me still trying to prove myself is what keeps me going throughout the weeks of me training.

Diary Of A Baller: Jaquan Harris (North Brunswick, NJ) Entry #7

Jaquan and His Brother Jamir

What’s Up Basketball Spotlight World, It’s Jaquan Harris and I’m back with my Diary Of A Baller. Here’s how my week went. 

Monday: After school I had boxing, I was looking forward to going today because my trainer was going to show me some new things. After we did all of our lifting and conditioning we put on the gloves and he began to show me scenarios where I could use different types of punches throughout the time I was there. I’m always open to learn new things but when it’s something that can help me my whole life I’m always ready to listen.

Diary Of A Baller: Jaquan Harris (North Brunswick, NJ) Entry #6

Jaquan Harris

What’s Up Basketball Spotlight World, It’s Jaquan Harris and I’m back with my Diary Of A Baller. Here’s how my week went 

Monday: Today the entire school were working on their individual Black History Month projects. For my project I ended up picking Malcolm X. I picked Malcolm X because I always knew what he wanted and he was a big impact on black culture and I wanted to learn more about him. So, after school I worked on it a little more then went to work in the gym. My high school career is approaching quickly so as that’s happening I’m going to be working as hard as I can so I can be prepared when it’s here.
