Basketball is special to me because I grew up playing it. I've made many friends through it. It is a sport that can brighten my mood and make me happy. A big reason why I love this sport is because of a NBA player named James Harden. I admire his work ethic and determination. He is a great player and a great person. There is a small community in Aruba where we would go and play every weekend. I made a lot of memories playing basketball.
