Write about a basketball player before a big game. How does he prep his mind? Does he think about what it felt like the first time he played the sport?

Before a big game, a basketball player will often take time to mentally prepare himself. He may visualize himself playing the game, picturing himself making the right moves and executing the plays perfectly. He may also take time to reflect on his journey to get to this point, remembering the first time he ever played the sport and the feeling of accomplishment he felt when he first made a basket. He may also take time to think about the hard work he has put in to get to this point, and the dedication he has shown to the game. He may also take time to think about the team he is playing for and the importance of the game. All of these thoughts help him to focus and stay motivated for the game ahead.
