Professional Basketball Player

Duties and Responsibilities: Professional Basketball players must always give their best effort when they are on and off the court. This means every time they are substituted in, they are expected to give maximum effort in order to help the team win games. When they are off the court, they must ensure that they practice or condition daily because basketball can be a tough sport, and lack of fitness or exercise can lead to bad games. They must also notify the team of any injuries, because some players tend to play with their injuries and get in even worse conditions.

Salary: $3,863,634

Education: No educational Requirements, but any form of degree is welcome

Reflection: Do you think you would like to be one? Why? Why not? I honestly would like to be one like many others, but I feel that I may not be able to because to start off with I am kind of short and second soccer is my favorite sport, although I do enjoy watching and playing basketball with my friends.
