🏀 Dream big. Know your worth. Believe there is no limit to what you can achieve.

For former Serbian international and Olympic medalist Aleksandra Crvendakić, basketball has been much more than a game. It has taught her resilience, discipline, confidence, and the importance of continuing to believe in yourself — even when things don’t go your way.

Her advice to the next generation? Work hard and stay ambitious, but don’t forget to enjoy the journey. Celebrate how far you’ve come, trust the work you’re putting in, and keep showing up.

🏀 PASS IT ON by GUTS 🎥

Every player has a story.
Every journey teaches a lesson.
Every experience can inspire the next generation.

Today, we are proud to launch Pass It On – a new series by GUTS, where professional basketball players share a personal message, valuable advice, and life lessons with young athletes around the world.

We are honored to welcome our very first guest, Paula Strautmane 🇱🇻.

A member of the Latvian National Team, Paula has represented her country at multiple FIBA Women’s EuroBasket tournaments and built an international career that has taken her from NCAA Division I basketball at Quinnipiac University in the United States to professional clubs across Europe. Through dedication, resilience, and hard work, she continues to inspire young players both on and off the court.

💙 Thank you, Paula, for sharing your experience and helping us inspire girls through basketball.

What is the best piece of advice you have ever received?
