“Being from here, there's a lot of pride that comes from playing for the club,” the Denver-born player says. “The culture of this club is to be very culture-oriented and really connect with the people and play a style of play that they like. So there's definitely a connection straight away, and you want nothing more than to bring something special back to the place that you love.”
This year has been outstanding for Bassett, with the midfielder scoring nine goals and taking on a leadership role. He also sealed the victory in one of the biggest Rapids victories of the year, the August 20 game against Real Salt Lake. “Last year, when was with the 2s after coming back with his injury, I was always like, ‘I want you up here. When are we going to get to play with each other?'” Bassett says. “I used to go up against this guy when we were like, eight or nine, and then to transition to being on this team, it’s a good partnership.”They’ll take that partnership to the playoffs as a seven seed facing a two seed in the Galaxy.
Bassett says he’s seen his teammates blossom this year, finally showing the world the talent that the organization has always known they had.
