Start Early. When you are in Junior High and High School it's important to gain exposure through AAU and CLUB TEAMS which offer higher-level competition and exposure to college coaches. Maintain good grades, some college prioritize academics over athletics. Build relationships with Coaches and seek professional training if feasible. You can improve your own game by watching professionals on YouTube and utilize their skills videos. Be dedicated and committed to putting in the work to improve your game. Play Varsity basketball in High School and do your best to stand out as a Leader. There is no specific education to target to become an NBA/WNBA player. You should always consider the importance of obtaining your college degree. However, you must do well in academics in High School to meet the educational requirements of most colleges. Surround yourself with people who support your goals. Choose to go to the local gym and play above your current skill set. As a female, I played with the guys in various rec leagues and in a co-ed league to improve my skills. Best of Luck!
