It is championship night in Boston with the Cavs in town. The players just received their rings and raised the championship banner. Craig Sager just reported that every ring has the word UBUNTU engraved on one side. Ubuntu was and still is the Boston Celtics team motto. So what is the meaning or message behind the word? Ubuntu is an African word that means, "Humility to others" or "I am who I am because of who we all are." It also refers to a "philosophy of life that promotes the greater good rather than individual success."Do your players understand that individual honors and accolades are rarely awarded to players on losing teams? Look at your All Conference teams and you will usually see where the top teams in the league are usually awarded the most spots on each team.
