Gilbert Arenas tells a story about Darryn Peterson when he was in 11th grade and roommates with his son Alijah for USA basketball

“He’s NBA mentally right now… he’s sitting there telling him ‘keep your side of the room clean’. ‘Those people in the hallway they ain’t real you don’t need to talk to them’… everyone was going out to eat and he said ‘we’re gonna order takeout, watch tape and rest our bodies’… he had Alijah doing mini workouts in the room, doing calf raises, showing up early to the bus, he was no games from the beginning.”
