She cried while describing her relationship with her dad."I love my relationship with my dad. It just grows everyday," Chavez said. "I love playing basketball. It's something that I feel like all my problems go away when I'm playing basketball and especially when I'm with my dad."That love almost didn't materialize because of Sonny's past. Sonny Chavez admitted he was a bad boy in school and dreamt of becoming a gangster.But when the federal agents swooped around their compound in 2012 and took his family into prison, he changed his ways and redirected his life to a life with purpose.The change continued when his daughter Aaliyah was born, and he worked all day at a car shop to provide for his family. The turn to the good side of things worked great for him, especially when Aaliyah was doing great in basketball."He opened up," the 18-year-old Monterey standout said. "He trusted more people because of me. I think he had more of a softer heart."Chavez finished her high school career with 4,796 points, 1,279 rebounds and 771 assists.Aaliyah Chavez is blessed to have her father on her sideAaliyah Chavez is thankful to have a father like Sonny Chavez by her side as a coach, trainer, and top supporter during her high school career.It was her dad who spent several hours focusing on her growth, conditioning and shot selection and helped her become one of the feared women's basketball players in the nation."And she's No. 1 in the country," Sonny Chavez said. "People will never give us the credit. But we made other trainers feel like it's possible. We made other kids feel like it's possible. It's a blessing to know that we did it from West Texas."Oklahoma made the Sweet Sixteen of the NCAA Tournament, beating Florida Gulf Coast and Iowa in the first two rounds before losing to eventual champions UConn.The Sooners are set to have three highly-rated recruits in Chavez, Keziah Lofton and Brooklyn Stewart next season. They hope to run it back and finish better than their 2024-25 stint with these prospects leading the charge.
