Kalib Boone started playing basketball in sixth grade and hated it. He was lazy and didn’t like being physical. A week in, he told his parents he wanted to quit. His twin brother, Keylan, remained on the team. Eventually, Kalib got bored watching from the sidelines. The final game of the season, he begged the coach to let him play. Kalib credits Keylan for his basketball career. Up until last summer they were a package deal. It’s been an adjustment not having his twin around. You wouldn’t know it by his performance on the court. Kalib is having a one of his best seasons yet. For the first time in his career, he has been able to focus on himself.
