– NBA Legend tells clinic participants
NBA Legend and Miami Heat Community Liaison, Wali Jones motivated hundreds of children that participated in his clinic yesterday with pep talks, fundamental training, career guidance and the role of basketball in developing academic competence.
“People don’t fail, plans fail,” Jones said in one of his speeches to the up and coming basketball players. He described the National Community Basketball League (NCBL) organised clinic as a huge success, indicating that the participants were disciplined.
“They (the participants) were very attentive. I felt great to be here to impart my knowledge over the years into these young people. I’d some of the D.C Jammers players who’re all from college backgrounds to assist me and it was great,” Jones indicated.
The NBA Legend discussed several topics for over two hours. He left Guyana for this morning, before soaking in the Guyana vs. D.C Jammers game last night. The NCBL International Week continues tonight when Guyana takes on the Brookly/Queens Bulldogs.
