I’m seeing quite a lot of athletes whose parents were athletes, or had the means to pay for elite training.

I don’t expect the hungriest kids to have any chance in most pro sports unless they’re above average, at least in size for the major US sports.

Agreed, pro sports is more genetics than anything, you can train till you bleed for years, but if you aren't at least 6 feet plus, no way are you gonna reach the NBA.
