Psalm 20:4

"May He give you the desire of you heart and make all your plans succeed

As a kid every year growing up, I would host NBA All-Star parties at my parents' house. I would watch with friends as I ran and screamed that the tv with my friends after seeing all the crazy highlights. 

 

In 2017, Indianapolis was set to host the 2021 All-Star game. Being in grad-school at the time, I told myself by the time Indy hosts again, I'll be there, not as a fan, but I'll be paid to go. 

​

In 2020, it was announced that the 2021 All-Star Weekend would be postponed to 2024. Having still not made it to the league in 2021, I set a goal with no hesitation that by 2024, "I'll be working in the NBA." By the grace of God, in 2022 I was afforded the opportunity to pursue my passions working in the NBA. I went from dreaming I would be there on day, to serving within my role and witnessing the first All-Star weekend in my home town in 40 years.

I look back at little Micah and say, "We did it. We got there. And it was all you ever dreamed it would be."
