2016 Highlights
Isaiah Burton Hig...Personal Statement
I have loved the game of basketball forever. I started playing basketball when I was 4. My dad and my 4 older brothers taught me the game. My goal is to play at the college level and hopefully go professional one day or do something in sports management. Right now I teach young boys how to play basketball and help them improve their skills. I have went to Puerto Rico on a missionary trip to teach young kids in the projects how to play basketball and had a blast!!
I am a good candidate to play on a college level and I consider myself to be different from other recruits because I am a versatile player and can lead my team. I want my teammates to shine as well as my self and that's why I am a great leader. I think I am a great teacher and motivator to my teammates.
I am a student athlete as well and strive to do my best in every class.

- Isaiah Burton is a very unique player because of his versatility. He can guard multiple position, but also can play 1-4 offensively. Isaiah has a knack for the ball and good court awareness. His size allows him to guard point guards, shooting guards, small forwards and most power forwards. Offensively he is a matchup nightmare. Point guards are too small to guard him and he is faster than all forwards when attacking the rim.
