I don’t believe that God dictate who wins games in sports but it is amazing to witness this Christian young MAN OF GOD reach the top of the mountain in his profession after all of his sacrifice, hard work and determination. This young man story is remarkable! He got cut from his JV team in high school, was not a Mc Donald’s All American, only got a scholarship to Kentucky because a player got injured, then was underestimated in the draft, traded by the team who drafted him, then got traded by the Clippers, came off the bench in OKC for Chris Paul and still after all of that won every MVP trophy you can win in 2025 and is one of the youngest players to lead his team to a Championship ever in basketball history. This is an Amazing story for young kids to know so they can understand that if you work hard no one can stop what God has planned for you!💯🙏.. Bible verses I seen that resignated with what I seen from this young man is Psalm 37:4 “Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart". in Philippians 4:13 it says “I can do all things through him who strengthens me, and in Proverbs 14:23 it says All hard work brings a profit, but mere talk leads only to poverty. Showing that this young man put his heart in this, believe in Jesus Christ and worked hard to get to where his is at today. This young man Shai seems like a good man who is also married with a wonderful family and deserves everything that he is receiving right now. This is not to praise Shai because I praise no one but God but to say congratulations and job well done to the MVP and best player in my favorite sport basketball. I haven’t had a favorite player since Kobe Bryant but he definitely have the tools and focus Kobe had and for that Shai got that number #1 spot in my eyes. God Bless & young kids playing sports take notes from this young man Of God!
