What is perseverance? The definition is "steadfastness in doing something despite difficulty". Well most can say that for nearly all professional athletes. But some athletes have a harder roads to travel then others. Michael Adams is one of those athletes. He was told that he would not be good enough to make the NBA (played 11 season). He was to short (5'10"). His shooting form is questionable (36% from 3 in 1988). Not good enough to make the All-Star team (An All-star in 1991). He wouldn't be a good scorer (Average 26 ppg in 1990). Adams has been doubted his whole basketball career. No matter what, Michael continued to prove his haters wrong to have an successful NBA career. He finish his NBA career averaging nearly 15 points per game and 6 assists (84% free throw shooter). Not bad for an player picked 66th in the 1985 draft. Nevertheless, click the video below to see some of Adam's career highlights. I personally hope everyone had a great 2018 thus far. It's a blessing to see another year. Be safe and give love to those that matter the most to you.
