Kyler's 7th Grade Basketball

 Kyler grew so much this year in basketball.  It started off rough with not knowing his place on the team to because such a force!  He progressed so much, and it was fun to watch.  He has so much ability and when we just reacts, rather than thinks, he's amazing!  I didn't get any still pictures, but I got a lot of videos.  His team won every district game and only lost 2 games all season.



I love it when he just takes a rebound and goes straight down the court!


Kyler had so many layup opportunities in this games, but for whatever reason, he couldn't make any of them!!  


Great play and missed layup


My favorite part of the game is the tip, and I think Kyler is getting there too.


One of many blocks


He really does have much better ball handling skills than he realizes.


Kyler likes to move away from people, so he's great for people driving in to create space for them.



He's much quicker than most post players.


Such a great pass!



Those long arms throw so many people off.  They don't realize just how far his reach is.



Get it and go!!


He makes it look so easy!


Such a great block on the best player on the other team.


This was his best game of the season.  They played a hard team and lost for the first time.  Kyler had never played so hard and aggressive.  It was amazing to watch and heartbreaking at the end for him.


He couldn't finish this one, but his ability to clear the court is awesome!


It has taken years for Kyler to get this aggressive, and it's amazing to watch!


This was such a highlight for me and him, but it was amazing to see him work so hard and get rewarded.  He has so much potential and ability in him, but when he is able to see himself do things like this, it is AWESOME!!



By the last game, Kyler had learned how to take some contact and not shy away.  He got stronger and more resilient.


I love how willing my boys are to pass the ball.  It's never about just them.  They are great team players.


Look at all that contact!!


This was an amazing play.  The aggression and determination he showed was new for him.  I loved watching him grow so much!!
