#BBALL125 Miah-Marie Langlois

Senior Women's National team player Miah-Marie Langlois shares her basketball memories to kick off our 125 years of basketball photo series.

My favourite memories would be playing basketball in my back alley in Windsor against my brothers and anyone who came over. We'd be back there for so long, that our mom would have to yell from the upstairs window to take a break or even to eat! However, my fondest memory of the alley would be lowering the net to 7 feet so we all could dunk! My brothers and I would wear our Chicago jerseys, the oldest was MJ, the second would be Pippen, leaving me to be Rodman, maybe that gave me my edge on defense. When I think about it, I wouldn't be where I am without that back alley.
