The W/NBA Forever

By: Washington, Taurean

Basketball is something I've been a huge fan of as a child. My hoop dreams were cut extremely short when I tried out for the Middle School Team in Lacey, Washington. When I didn't even make the JV team and I was in the "C" team that scrimmaged, my confidence in that area was shot

Today, I just big myself up in pickups with being the energy guy. I just like the intensity. I like that feeling of standing toe to toe. Often, people play with the mentality that they have everything to lose and everything about them is on the line. For me, I play with I have everything to gain and there's nothing for me to lose because I already have my confidence, and no one can take away my winning mindset even in a loss.

On the other end, I am very happy for the success for the WNBA. As a man, I was always told I was weird for watching women's ball at the college and WNBA level. I loved the competition in the rivalries. I was watching women's college basketball since Diana Taurasi was at UConn. I'm old but not that old for the Sheryl Swoopes lol Much respect to her but I was a little kid for those that laid the foundation in the inception of the WNBA.

But, as an artist, I want to bring multiple concepts together as a hybrid and I'm keen on known nicknames or certain things that describe each person and visual I hope I accomplished that here.

This is just the beginning. More players will be coming. I came here to change the game. I may not be the best at ball. But I'm going to the Naismith Hall of Fame as a visual artist
