Answer 1

Answer 2

Swim!!

Answer 3

You will find more opportunities in swimming. (It looks like you already have one knocking at your door). Think about it, a bb team only has 5 players. The opportunities are pretty slim.

If you have bb in your blood, go to the gym or the park and play in a pick-up game once in awhile.

Answer 4

hah! it is 97 degrees where I am today- go for the swimming!

Answer 5

I definitely say swimming because it opens a lot more opportunities.  I also think it boosts your health more than basketball. Swimming is so good for you and it is not hard on your joints and knees.  Basketball is great, but I think you will have more success if you take up swimming in the long run...plus swim scholarships are more frequent because there are less of them...

Answer 6

If I were u, I would swim. If you're pretty good at swimming, you have a much better shot of going professional than if u did basketball. Not many people make professional basketball teams, even if they're pretty good.

Answer 7

swim

Answer 8

Go for swimming.

If you think you can swim for college and you love the sport then you should pursue it. Besides there is way less of a chance that you could get injured in swimming.
