-He's as down to earth as I am and tries very hard every time.

What parallels do you foresee between your career journey and this individual

In what way will your legacy be viewed by the next generation?

-Man imma be real with you my legacy will be viewed as something amazing by every one else.

- People will be proud at the fact that I came out of the hood and through the struggle and now I am enjoying what I do

-I will have fans that will be watching my streams and follow me eyyyy.

-We are both a different race other than Caucasian. -We would both go through a racial divide and have it harder when we would try to make it to a professional team.

-Another parallel I see is that this profession will become something very serious and i will spend most of my career playing professionally rather than anything else.
