Why am I inspired by him?

 He inspires me because he played multiple sports at the same time (e.g. baseball, football
and basketball)
 Also, he never gave up because he says that whenever you fail, you get discouraged or get
afraid, but he overcame that fear
 Another reason he inspires me is because he wanted to play basketball after he saw his
brother playing and thought that he was his idol.
