“Good, better, best. Never let it rest. Until your good is better and your better is best” - Tim Duncan said this once, and I took it as a sign to keep working on myself, without fail! Being a basketball player all my life, it was natural for me to eventually become an NBA writer at EssentiallySports. Being a Spurs fan, I fell in love with Duncan and McGrady for making me the fan I am today. Their dedication to their field inspired me to never give up, despite my knee surgeries. Today, as an NBA writer, I get to share my unique perspectives with the world. The fact that I actually get to write about the things that I love, especially while getting to watch them live, it something I love about my job. With San Antonio landing a cornerstone for their franchise in Wembanyama, make sure you are paying close attention to Spurs-based pieces. When I am not knee-deep into all things basketball, I am gaming. I love PUBG, NBA2K and Forza Horizon. Want to have a spirited debate on my articles? Hit me up on the links below.

“If you don't fall how are you going to know what getting up is like." - Reading this, it’d be pretty much evident how much I love and am in awe of Stephen Curry. His Warrior spirit flows right in my veins. Growing up in a household where basketball was worshipped, it was natural. I was bound to become either an NBA player or an NBA journalist. I chose the latter, because of my interest in Journalism as well. So I decided to repackage my enthusiasm and come here at EssentiallySports. Now, I am writing about NBA and the Warriors day in and day out. Being a basketball writer has been a joy ride for me, since I get to churn out fresh takes on players and team dynamics daily. Other than writing and NBA, my interests include reading. I absolutely love Nike’s founder Phil Knight’s biography - Shoe Dog. If you’re a sports lover like me, do give it a read. For more recommendations and Stephen Curry debates, hit me up!
