Hours before each game, Ramon Walker Jr. walks onto the court before the rest of the UH bench unit comes out for pre-game warmups. He starts with some stretching, then begins shooting free throws before stepping back behind the three-point line until his teammates join him.

He’s alone. Save for maybe a student manager to help rebound, he’s putting in work before anyone else.
