Coaching Point
Look through the basketball drills and think about what you need to work on personally to become a complete player. For example, if you’re a weak ball handler, spend extra time each day doing some of the dribbling skills. Don’t ignore your strengths; but if you are only able to catch and shoot and can’t dribble, the defense will close you out hard and make you put the ball on the floor. Make a list of both strengths and weaknesses and determine how much time you need to devote to each of them.
