I love these post-clinic conversations. Training, mentoring, influencing, and making an impact on players—it’s what it’s all about.

Whew… close call 😅 The Drop is everywhere... Here are 3 versions: 1️⃣ Standard Drop 2️⃣ Skinny Drop 3️⃣ Extended Drop Next time you train, try all 3—variety builds mastery!

Keeping space = creating space. 🏀 Luka’s split stance game is elite. A small push backs up the defender, and with a reset step, the space is his. The DrillMat highlights this perfectly—it’s my go-to for training this skill. 🔥

We could Photoshop our Shooting Basketball into the mix, but we can’t fake the evidence. Great shooters overwhelmingly hold the ball like this—not with the guide hand low on the side. We teach what works, based on evidence, not regurgitation.

Both of these footworks are game-changers for attacking the basket. 🏀🔥 Want to maximize your opportunities? Make sure you’ve got them both in your game! 💼

Could you keep up with this? 🧠🔥 This drill challenges your skills and reactions: 🟢 = Thru 🔴 = Behind 🔵 = Push Cross Ready to test your game? 🏀

The Cut Dribble is a skill rising in popularity, inspired by players like Chris Paul and Kyrie. 🏀 So, do you explore it or ignore it? The choice is yours.

Simple concepts like this aren’t taught enough—whether it’s skills or situational plays. Mastering how to fake a pass to complete a play is a huge playmaking ability. The key? Make the fake during ‘step 1’ so your final step is all about reading and responding.

Travel or 🧼? Sure, these are technically travels, but they’re also buckets. 🏀🔥 Confidence and quickness make it hard for officials to call in real time. Players need to know the rules and possibly how to push the boundaries.

Here’s a 9-year-old with WNBA-level focus. 🏀💪 I’ll work with anyone willing to work hard and focus! Kids don’t need to be babied—we can push them, challenge them, and expect BIG things. This girl came all the way from Texas to be challenged. 🔥

In basketball, responding > reacting. Reactions are unconscious, but responses are calm and calculated. It’s not about pre-planning moves—it’s about training to respond with confidence in real-time. We help players become intentional, composed, and effective on the court.

Game reads happen fast, but it all starts with the ability to read, respond, and execute. Can you make decisions with your eyes and have the skills to follow through? The best part: you can train this alone and build that edge. 🏀

The amount of identifiable skills in this play are amazing. But to me, the most important one to draw attention to is the Motion Pocket.

Every play has its details. The techniques we can study and learn from. - But for this one, I want to draw attention to the Open Drop footwork with a Punch.

This is one of the highest arc shots I remember taking. Which brings me to the question. How important is the ability to adjust your arc in the moments of the game?

Dame can shoot with a true jump shot like shown and with a fluid “one motion” shot whenever he wants. The point…it’s nice to have both.

This combination is elite! You might want to consider adding this to your Samsonite Ziplite 3.0 Hardside Spinner Luggage set 💼 like Desmond Claude And yes, he’s worked these techniques. You can too!

Pivots are undertrained. Start here- train these three at high speeds first. Then layer in pace and variability. 1. Step Thru 2. Reverse Pivot Spin 3. Add Step Around
