GET TO KNOW QUINTON LEE HOOKER

Quinton Lee Hooker was born in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota on January 22, 1995. Hooker has two older sisters and one younger brother.

Hooker plays basketball for Park Center High School. He plays the guard spot. Hooker will graduate from high school in June 2013.

To Hooker basketball is an escape. If he is having a bad day he likes to think about his game and thinks about how he can improve his play.

During the summer he plays AAU basketball for the Howard Pulley Panthers based out of the Twin Cities in Minnesota.

He gave up football to concentrate on basketball. In his free time Hooker likes hanging out with his friends and having a good time. He is currently taking a college course at the University of Minnesota with a program called Post-Secondary Enrollment Option.

I have seen this young man play basketball many times. He has a passion for the game. Hooker is very easy to get a long with. On the court he understands the game. This young man has a great future ahead of him on and off the court. He has a solid basketball game and a great shot. Whatever program he is a part of, he is a great asset to that program.

In the first 16 games of the 2011-2012 basketball season, Hooker averaged 26.1 ppg for his team.
