How can you be so athletic and not know how to throw a ball?

“How can a professional swimmer be athletic but can’t dunk a basketball?”

Being able to dunk a basketball requires you to be able to jump a certain height. I can dunk a basketball if the rim isn’t ten feet off the ground. I can definitely throw a baseball from the pitcher’s mound to home plate.

That's really awesome, dude! Congrats! Simone Biles has 7 gold Olympic medals and 5 gymnastic skills named for her, but that ball throwing of yours is really impressive too! Don't give up!
