“I had my first tattoo following an agreement with my father. For this he demanded a “double-double” – Weir, CSKA player

game leader CSKA Casper Items spoke to about the strict parenting that led to his professional development.

Ware, 33, joined CSKA in March 2022, having played for Yenisey, as well as clubs in the Australian, Polish, French, Italian and German basketball leagues. Additionally, Ware has 9 games for the NBA Philadelphia 66ers in 2014.

– Mom and Dad wouldn’t let me play until I improved my grades. It was at 12-13 years old, I was lazy, I didn’t do my homework, I had bad grades. Dad said, “OK, you’re not playing in the youth league.” I thought, “Come on, it’s okay anyway. But the league started and I wasn’t on the team. Even if there were brothers. I had to go back to school. Within about half a season, he faced school problems and returned to the games.

– The tattoos also fell under parental prohibition?

– My father had a rule: no tattoo before 18 years old and before leaving the house of his parents. I got the first, if I’m not mistaken, in the second year of university, when I was 19 years old. And even then, following an agreement with my father: we agreed that I could cut something if I made a double-double in points and assists in one of the games. And that’s what happened,” Ware told .

In 65 official matches (62 in the starting lineup) played for the Army team over a season and a half, the American point guard averaged 26 minutes on the pitch and scored 13.3 points.
