Hi can someone pls review my essay and give me any suggestions. (It’s a personal narrative and the prompt was to write about a time you showed tenacity)

It’s the last game of the season, my last opportunity to show my skills and my knowledge. Basketball is a sport that involves skill and aim. Which is something I didn’t have, and therefore wasn’t the most brilliant one in the team. At first basketball seemed to be easy, but then I learned that it involved much more skills than I had. To everyone who plays basketball I just want to say, my respect because honestly it isn’t as easy as it looks. I showed tenacity while playing basketball, for I never gave up and I was persistent. After losing many games, I had a feeling that we were going to win this one. I was nervous because I wasn’t the best at basketball, I could dribble the ball but I wasn’t that good at shooting a basket. This game was very important to me and my team, because it was a home game and the last one of the season. My team wasn’t the best but also wasn’t the worst. The best players of my team were the tallest one, since they were the ones who could shoot a basket even someone putting their hands up. The players of my time were all nice, but when it came to games it was all serious. The basketball court was where everything happened, dribbling the ball across the court, stealing the ball from the opposing team, and shooting a basket. The court was shiny, and had many lines that were all worth different points and meant different things. This was the place where I doubted many times, but never quitted because I was determined to succeed. I had the feeling that this game was going to be like no other. My team and I were getting ready to play our last game of the season. Then it was finally time to start the game, it was the first quarter and I was one of the 5 players on court. I was running and I could feel my heart pumping blood, the ball was on our side and then I saw my teammate jump and score a basket. I felt so happy, but also I knew that we had to keep our guard up. Fast forward to the last quarter, my team and the opposing team are tied. I am playing in the last quarter of the game, and I can see everyone is tired but also they have a face that they want to win. I feel really but I am not going to quit. It’s the last minute of the game, and I have the ball. I am so nervous but also determined to shoot a basket to win. I am running towards and inside my head I picture scoring and winning. I come back to reality, jump and shoot a basket. I did it! I really did it! At the end of the day my team and I won. I am so glad that I never gave up, and I was able to help my team win.
