GRATITUDE
GAME CHANGER
In sports, there are few moments more thrilling than a game-winning score. I love basketball, so I especially enjoy the spectacle of a final shot made with seconds on the clock. In my youth, it was Michael Jordan. Today, watching Stephen Curry or Caitlin Clark drain a basket as the clock runs out is equally as exciting.
