The day she walked into my life, she changed the game.
I’ve spent my entire life chasing wins on the court, but as I get closer to retiring from the NBA, I can’t help but feel uncertain about my future. Then I saw her.
Kenna James.
Unlike most women who threw themselves at me, she didn’t even want to give me the time of day. There was something so cold and guarded about her, but that didn’t stop me from pursuing her and breaking down those ironclad walls she built around her heart.
I notice everything about her. Loud noises terrify her, she hates attention, and crowded places make her uncomfortable. Her eyes hold a trauma I have yet to understand… something I can tell she won’t let herself feel.
It’s not in my nature to give up on something I desire. And Kenna?
She’s the only game I never want to lose.
