You don’t have to be the most talented player in the gym to separate yourself. You don’t have to be the tallest. You don’t have to be the fastest. You don’t have to have the best handle. And you definitely don’t have to wait for your coach to give you an opportunity. Start with the 3 things that require ZERO skill. 1️⃣ EFFORT If you aren’t the most skilled player, make up for it with your effort. Sprint every transition. Run the floor. Crash the glass. Defend. Make the extra rotation. Finish every drill. There is no excuse for giving less than your best. 2️⃣ ATTITUDE You control this. Bad call? Next play. Missed shot? Next shot. Turnover? Get back and defend. Not getting minutes? Stay ready. Anybody can have a good attitude when everything is going their way. Your character shows when it doesn’t. Be the teammate who brings energy into the gym. Be the guy who encourages others instead of bringing everyone down. 3️⃣ HUSTLE This one gets overlooked. A lot of players get into good enough shape. Elite players get into ELITE shape. Be the first guy down the floor. Be the guy diving on the floor. Be the guy sprinting into every closeout. Be the guy who keeps playing hard when everyone else is tired. Hustle creates opportunities. It gets you extra possessions. Extra rebounds. Easy buckets. Deflections. Second-chance points. And sometimes… it gets you on the floor. Your coach notices. Your teammates notice. And yes, college coaches notice too. You might not be able to control your height, your athleticism, your role, or how much natural talent you have. But you CAN control your effort. You CAN control your attitude. And you CAN control how hard you hustle. Stop looking for ways to separate yourself that require talent. Start dominating the things everyone has access to. EFFORT. ATTITUDE. HUSTLE. Do those three consistently, and you’ll become very difficult to take off the floor. 🏀 Trainer: @Logan Hinton, a former 5 year pro across three countries.

Hey Guys, no crazy post today. I went to the dentist and I’m pretty out of it lol. I just want to take time to say thank you. Thank you for your support, thank you for sharing your stories and daily wins, thank you for helping grow the community, but most importantly thank you for being YOU. You guys make this the best community on Skool. I was having a conversation today about how much time I put into this community and how I haven’t made a single cent. I don’t care about that at all, I care about you guys, I care about helping you get better and achieve your dreams. That’s my why, it’s you guys. Seeing you share your big wins makes it all worth it. I just wanted you guys to know how much this community and you mean to me. I’m so proud of each and every one of you! Look you got Unc all emotional 😂🏀 What is something you’re appreciative for?

Every player needs one. Not 20 different moves. Not something flashy just for the sake of looking good. A move you KNOW you can get to. When the game gets tight, the clock is running down, and you need a bucket, you don’t want to be thinking about what move to try next. You want something that’s already in you. Your go-to move should be: • Something you’re comfortable with • Something you have confidence in • Something that fits your game • Something you’ve practiced over and over again • Something you can create separation with and consistently get your shot off That last part is HUGE. A move isn’t your go-to because it looks good in an empty gym. It becomes your go-to because you’ve repped it enough that you trust it when it matters. Research on motor learning and performance under pressure supports this idea: accumulated practice and experience can influence how well athletes execute skills when pressure is added. The goal is to build a movement pattern that becomes reliable enough that you don’t have to consciously think through every part of it when the game speeds up. (PubMed) That’s why your go-to move needs to be practiced with intention and repetition. Same move. Different angles. Different defenders. Different speeds. Different situations. Get so comfortable with it that when you need a bucket, your confidence doesn’t come from hoping the move works. It comes from knowing you’ve done it thousands of times. Find your move. Rep it. Own it. Then trust it when the game is on the line. 🏀🔥 Trainer: @Logan Hinton, a former 5 year pro across three countries. Train Like a Pro!

I was playing pick up yesterday and I was chasing after a loose ball and I stepped on this other guy‘s foot and my foot twisted really badly and I thought it was just a rolled ankle, but we got an x-ray and it was much worse

Tryouts tmw. Pretty nervous but whatever happens happens ig.
