Logo

 

My logo was inspired by Nate Robinson's book, Heart over Height. Robinson takes readers behind the scenes of his childhood hardships as well as the defining events of his career in Heart Over Height. Heart Over Height tells a narrative that exemplifies what it takes to persevere. To be persevere, you have to be persistent despite difficulty or delay in achievements. Basketball is frequently referred to as a game of giants. Some of the greatest tiny men in NBA history have demonstrated that heart cannot be taught. My father taught me to work for what I want and that it's more about what's in your heart and how much you want it than it is about what God has given you physically. I want my logo to inspire younger players to enjoy the game and use their height to their advantage.
