Red Sports: What was the most exciting game you played in during the Nationals? Why was it exciting?
Randy: It was the game against North Vista. The score was very closed. (Jurong beat North Vista 55-49).
Red Sports: What is your favourite shot?
Randy: Fade away shot.
Red Sports: How did you get started with basketball?
Randy: I enjoy the exercise and playing with my brother. I find it challenging because you need accuracy to score. My older brother influenced me a lot because the first time I picked up bball it was with my bro. He played with me and taught me.
Red Sports: Any advice to the juniors who are trying to break into the school team next year?
Randy: Try your best.
Red Sports: Are you hoping to play on in the ‘B’ Division?
Randy: Yup, I want to play. I want to improve and be a better player.
Red Sports: You are very fast on court. Are you as fast as your school’s 100m sprinter?
Randy: I didn’t participate in the 100m but I have a schoolmate, Haorong, who is faster than me. He beat me over 400m.
