A Wilson Evolution Basketball for Dustin to shoot some hoops

Posted May 2, 2022
Dustin was gifted a basketball net last year and shoots hoops every day the weather allows him to be outside. He has been through three basketballs already, and would like a good quality Wilson basketball to last him a while. He plays basketball as a calming technique and it has been so helpful with his healing process.

Dustin is 16 years old and lives in AL

Dustin is having a hard time adjusting to being removed from his home with his 3 siblings and sent to live with his aunt and uncle. He loves to be outside and will look for something to do so he can stay out and not be bored or have to be cooped up inside. He enjoys throwing a football with his uncle and helping him around the yard and fixing things up on their house. Dustin is still trying to decide if he wants to be a plumber, an electrician or a carpenter. He knows he wants to work with his hands and fix things. The family has a dog that Dustin had really bonded with and is calmer when the dog is by his side.
