Hot Shot!

Not afraid to shoot.
Fast to the break.
Emi has a sweet handle. Natural point guard. Look at that smile. Winning the Hot Shot championship in my age group at Midwestern University Basketball Camp the summer before my ninth grade year with a shot from the top of the key as time ran out was one of the highlights of my basketball career. This year's Hot Shot championship at East Central University: Emilio.

We capped the day with a pool party at Ranch Bluff Court.
