I have been struggling the last couple of games not scoring a single point any tips

You can have the skill. You can put in the work. You can be physically ready. But when your opportunity comes, you still have to believe you belong in that moment. Confidence doesn’t replace the work—it allows you to trust it. These are 3 of my go-to moves. I’ve done them so many times that they’ve become muscle memory. I don’t have to think about whether I can do them. I trust them. More importantly, I trust myself. That kind of confidence is built. It comes from the hours in the gym. The reps nobody sees. Making mistakes, correcting them, and doing it again. Repeating something until your body can execute it without hesitation. But confidence also comes from what you tell yourself. You have to believe you deserve the opportunity before the opportunity ever comes. You have to believe you’re capable of making the play, taking the shot, and making the right decision when the pressure is on. Research backs up what athletes experience: confidence and self-belief are positively associated with sports performance. They can influence things like effort, decision-making, coping with pressure, and how well you access the skills you’ve already developed. So build your game. Put in the work. But don’t forget to build your belief, too. Because when your moment comes, you don’t want to be wondering if you’re ready. You want to know.

Confidence is one of the biggest skills in basketball—and one of the most overlooked. Sports psychology consistently shows that confidence improves decision-making, reaction time, and execution under pressure. When you trust yourself, you play faster, commit less hesitation, and let your training take over. Hesitation, on the other hand, slows reaction time and increases mistakes. No matter how skilled you are, if you don’t believe in yourself, you’ll never play to your full potential. You have to believe you belong on the court. Every minute you earn, every possession you get, every opportunity you receive—you deserve it because you worked for it. Play your game. Don’t try to be someone else. If you’re timid or constantly second-guessing yourself, defenders, teammates, and coaches will notice. Confidence is contagious, but so is hesitation. In this game, I was the youngest player on the court with the least experience. But I made sure I stepped on that floor believing I belonged there. Confidence isn’t thinking you’re better than everyone else—it’s trusting that your preparation has earned you the right to compete. Even if you feel like the “worst” player on the court, remember this: you’re on that court for a reason. Someone believed you were good enough to be there. Now it’s your job to believe it too. Confidence isn’t something you’re born with. It’s a muscle. Every workout, every rep, every challenge, and every time you push through fear, that muscle gets stronger. Believe in your work. Believe in yourself. Then let your game speak. Trainer: @Logan Hinton, a former 5 year pro across three countries!

If you’re the best player in the gym… you’re in the wrong gym. Growth happens when you’re challenged, not when you’re comfortable. Sports science shows that athletes improve the most when they consistently train against opponents who push their limits. The higher the level of competition, the faster your decision-making, reaction time, and ability to perform under pressure develop. You either rise to your competition or slowly sink to it. In this run, I’m competing against former Division I players, overseas professionals, and G League-level talent. Am I the most skilled player on the floor? No—and that’s exactly the point. Every possession forces me to think faster, play harder, and earn everything. One thing that translates to every level is effort. Hustle, conditioning, and mindset don’t require talent—they require discipline. Those are the things that allow you to compete with players who may be more experienced or naturally gifted. Don’t chase being the best player in the gym. Chase being the player who improves the most every time you walk into one. Because if you’re always the best player in the gym… you’re probably in the wrong gym. Trainer: @Logan Hinton, a former 5 year pro across three countries.
