Tough - Jayson Tatum
A lot of younger players have a misguided idea of “tough.” Tough is a lot more about being able to handle your emotions than getting emotional. Tough is walking away from the fight when it’s going to hurt your team. Tough is competing at an elite level every day in practice throughout the year, regardless of your record or personal situation.
Tough isn’t necessarily what many young players think it is. I like what Jayson Tatum had to say about tough.
