This statement means that you cab be an excellent basketball player but you have to be a good person overall. You always don't have to remember to win games its to be kind and do good things for others.Like helping i the community and helping the people in need. You can always be a good person by choosing the right and not saying bad words and care for other people.What i think of john wooden said, its a nice statement that can be meant for anything and everything.
