00:00Hi, I'm Delaney Walters and I'm shooting for the WNBA.

00:05I first started playing, I was probably like three.

00:10I started dribbling the basketball.

00:13My dad had me dribbling outside doing drills in our front driveway.

00:18But I started, I got on my first AU team around first grade, I want to say.

00:23I realized that I could really do this and that it doesn't matter the age that I'm at.

00:30It just matters how skilled I am and the work that I put in.

00:34My goal is to obviously win, try to get that state championship and to make a name of myself

00:41and to be seen by other colleges or schools that are interested in me and just be the

00:48best I could possibly be on the court.

00:50When did you realize you had a skill behind the arc?

00:53Definitely my seventh grade year, I was shooting long range threes that I would just shoot

01:00it and it would go in and I was like, wow, I guess I could really do this and I just started

01:05shooting from outside, like very far out.

01:07What does all this mean to you?

01:09It's very exciting.

01:10Very exciting to see where it just takes me in the future.
