Andrew Jackson Basketball Player to Start New Chapter

Not all players end up playing their beloved high school sport; however, a new chapter of their lives is only starting once they graduate. This can be seen in the life of Andrew Jackson basketball player Davin Daniels, whose basketball career is being put behind for the life of an architectural one.

“I am closing a chapter of my life, leaving some of the people that I have grown to love so much,” said Daniels.

Daniels has played as a point guard since he could remember. The will to compete and the want to win has driven him far. He began playing at the age of five and grew up in a basketball household which reflects his views on life.

“I guess you can say my love for basketball stems from my love for my family,” he said. 

He states that the best part about basketball is the fact that he can build bonds with just about everyone he comes into contact with. Daniels’ most priceless basketball memory reflects back to the bonds he has made. He says that during his sophomore and junior year playoff runs were too bittersweet to ever forget. As well as his memories with his Amateur Athletic Union (AAU) coach, Monica, who he says has been there from the beginning of his career. He says she has always given her his all so he would always try to return the favor in his playing.

Before games Daniels tends to mellow out and remember why he plays basketball. He has his own routine for each game. He plays his specific playlist, relates his own playing to the player he looks up to (Lebron James), and looks at pictures of his family to remind him of why he plays.
