Height is not a decisive factor at home or abroad. You may be slightly worse than others in height, but you can take your own route and take advantage of your speed advantage by changing direction and accelerating.

Actually, it's a little late for you to start practicing basketball now. You are a freshman. But since you want to do it, that's a good thing. You can start with basic skills. Only when the basic skills are solid can the speed advantage be brought into play.

I wish you an early success!
