Kendall thanks for talking to German Hoops Thanksgiving came and went and for the fourth time in five years you were away from home for this big American holiday. What was your favorite childhood memory of thanksgiving?
My favorite memories of thanksgiving have to be all of the different foods and desserts that my family would make.
You are playing your second season with Baskets Vilsbiburg (Germany-Regionalliga). After being a runner up in the Regionalliga last season was it only logical for you to return to win it all this season and move up to the Pro B?
After finishing second last season only playing half of the season with the team, I thought that there would be a great chance of having another great season this year.
The club Baskets Vilsbiburg (Germany-Regionalliga) have started off well. The scoring really stands out as the club has scored 80 points or more in nine of it´s 13 games. Is this the team´s biggest strength at the moment?
I do think that because we are able to score a lot of points that it makes our team very difficult to play against because everyone is capable of contributing.
