"I was with Tokyo Samurai for only one season but all the coaches and players welcomed me. Samurai gave me the opportunity to play with people all around the world and learn from one another. Coach Kris believed in me from the start and put countless of hours in the gym together. He’s helped so many players on all of our teams to compete at the next level. During practices and games it’s very competitive environment with a ton of energy. I had the privilege to play against some of the top teams in Japan with Samurai, we didn’t just improve individually as players but as a team as well. Samurai let’s you creates bonds with your teammates and I feel that’s what will separate us from the competition, we play as a team. Tokyo Samurai has gave me an opportunity I’ll never forget. Thank you Tokyo Samurai!"

"The Tokyo Samurai provided me with the high level coaching to help me as a player on the court but also increase my basketball IQ and how I think the game. It was invaluable in my transition to the college level where I felt prepared. The coaching staff was always open and honest and I always felt they were looking out for my best interest, continually pushing me on and off the court."
