We caught up with new basketball prospect Dylan Porteous, from VIC!

After a successful trial in Ballarat, Dylan was offered a place on the prestigious NSR Australia program.

We learned, that just like us, he couldn’t be more THRILLED about it!

What I hope to gain out of the experience with NSR?

 

I hope to gain the experience of new and interesting places and to meet and connect with interesting people. I want to excel at what I’ve been striving for my entire life… and that is to be the absolute best at what I’m capable of doing.

 

What is my dream?

 

My dreams have always reflected with sport since I was a child and I’ve never looked back. My goal before basketball was to be a professional footballer for the AFL, but when I was introduced to basketball at 13, I knew from the bottom of my heart that I loved and was obsessed with this sport and I would do whatever it took to achieve doing what I loved every day for the rest of my life.

 

How NSR signing did changed your life so far?

 

It has changed my life dramatically, I’ve been working harder at school and I endure the “student” before athlete. It has also given me more opportunity to chase my dream harder than ever before.

 

We love your outlook, Dylan! Keep shooting goals, on and off the court!
