To make headlines and be recognized for one’s talent and hard work is a great accomplishment in itself. Milan Harrison plays basketball as if it were the air he breathes. His supporters and followers are witnesses to the extent of his passion on and off the court.

Milan is known for being a lead scorer and team player who portrays humility by giving back to his community. Originally from Springfield, Massachusetts, Harrison lives by the quote, “Never forget where you came from”.

Throughout the years he has blessed the courts and proven time and time again that he is exactly where he belongs. In 2018 he was invited to the “Hoops & Dreams Showcase” with Potter Academy. It was during the same year that he was selected for the Puerto Rico National Basketball team and labeled as the super 7 guard with Potter House Prep and top 25 point guard in the NC area. On July 9, 2019 Harrison publicly announced that he would be attending Prodigy Prep for the duration of his high school career. Later that year, in December of 2019,The Grind Session, an international elite prep basketball circuit, titled Milan “The Under The Radar Player of the Week”.

This past Thanksgiving, while many were quarantining due to the pandemic, Harrison took to the streets of Springfield in hopes of assisting those in need. With family and friends by his side, turkeys and other essentials were distributed to the community. Harrison willingly gave back to his hometown, utilizing his upstanding reputation to shine light on the daily struggles of those around him.

Currently, Milan continues to play basketball while waiting for the pandemic to come to an end. He plans to play basketball professionally overseas as soon as the world opens back up. He has made it blatantly obvious that basketball is not just what he does. Basketball is who he is.
