The best basketball players in the history of the game didn’t get there by chance.
I think that’s something we all can agree on. While physical attributes can play a role, Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant, two of the best to ever pick up a ball, were not the greatest athletes of all time.
What they did have was a work ethic.
As for the late Bryant, a player that has touched the game of so many up-and-coming stars like Jayson Tatum, he laid the foundation for Julius Randle, not just from a skill standpoint but from a work ethic one as well.
