You have to first get good grades then try to transer to a american sports college like UCLA, North Carolina…etc.. then play on their team and hopefully get a scholarship and get drafted

playing “a bit” isnt enough. you need to be ranked on recruiting sites and all that to be even considered by most colleges. there was a guy who came from my school (Gilman High School) named ricky. he was 7’1, averaged 22 ppg 13 rpg and led our team to 4 out of our 22 basketball championships. needless to say he was a starter all four years who dominated the floor. the best offer he got was from texas state.
you can’t just assume that you will be in the NBA for sure so make sure you have something to fall back on…and to be an NBA player you obviously have to be extremely good at your position..and yes the jon is definetly worth it
I know a lot of kids that had your height at your age back in high school.
These kids came in with a lot of potential because of their height for their age.
Most that I know only did mediocre or stopped playing altogether.
If you want to be in the NBA you need to develop your skills because at the NBA level(even at the high school level and especially at the elite high school level) usually they will be at or above your height its the skills and skill set that will differentiate the player.
If your in high school look up the rankings for your graduating class on recruiting websites.
Watch those kids tapes and see what you have to be on par with.
Hope I help.
