Jaiden LaVanway

My dad calls me the Manu Ginobili of setters. If you're not familiar with who Mr. Ginobili is, he's a future hall of famer that played his entire NBA career with the San Antonio Spurs. My dad calls me this because he says, like Manu, I can be a little unorthodoxed at times but I'm typically the hardest worker in the gym and I do the little things necessary to help the team succeed; especially with putting team needs ahead of my own. My dad also says Manu was beloved by all his teammates and had a lot to do with the successful team culture the Spurs are renown for. Combined, I think my work-ethic and ability to be a great culture fit are my competitive advantages. I may not be the tallest setter or have the purest of techniques but I've been raised as a leader.
