4 Things that keep players from reaching full potential: 1.Time mgmt — Get off 2K & go to bed 2.Nutrition — Man can’t live on chicken tenders alone 3.Impact — Find ways to win beyond scoring. Don’t let makes/misses control your mood 4.Hydrate — No, Sweet tea doesn’t count
HS prospects: Be patient. Coaches are finishing portal recruiting & doing deep film/intel work. June scholastic & July live periods will bring an uptick in recruiting contact. Stay ready. 📈🏀
With all the teams playing Zone in the NBA playoffs i’m sure there will be an uptick in zone possessions. I can feel a summer project loading!
Good things happen for good people!@CoachRagsUE
