If you’re an explosive athlete, your goal should be to get downhill. The faster you attack the rim, the more momentum you create. That horizontal speed can be converted into vertical force during your plant, helping you jump higher and finish above the rim. It’s one of the reasons the biggest in-game dunks almost always happen off an aggressive downhill attack—not from standing still. Basketball is about maximizing your strengths. 🏹 Shooters create space to get to their spots. 🎯 Playmakers set up lob opportunities. 💪 Explosive athletes attack downhill and finish at the rim. Don’t try to play someone else’s game. Build your game around what you do best, then create situations where that strength shines. In this video, I’m using different downhill moves to create an advantage before exploding to the basket. The move doesn’t matter as much as what it creates: an open lane and momentum toward the rim. Train your strengths. Master your advantages. Train Like a Pro!
