Elite scorers aren’t defined by having one unstoppable move. They’re defined by their ability to find different ways to score when the defense takes something away. Ethan put on a clinic against the #4 team in the state—and what stood out wasn’t just how much he scored, but how many different problems he could solve. Backdoor cuts. Attacking hard downhill off closeouts. Mid-range pull-ups. Floaters. 3s. Leaking out in transition. Hook shots. Playing off two feet. Using his pivot. Creating advantages without the ball just as effectively as he created them with it. That’s multi-level scoring. Elite scoring is ultimately a decision-making problem. The defense changes the constraints—space, angles, timing, positioning, help—and the scorer has to adapt the solution. Research on skilled movement supports this idea: high-level performers benefit from being able to use different movement strategies while maintaining a consistent outcome. The best scorers aren’t just good at scoring one way. They have multiple answers. With the ball. Without the ball. At the rim. From the mid-range. From 3. In transition. Against a closeout. With their back to the basket. On two feet. Off movement. Different tools. Same objective: get a bucket. And Ethan showed nearly every one of them in a single game against a top-5 team in the state. Multi-level scoring. Trainer: @Logan Hinton, a former 5 year pro across three countries. Train Like a Pro!

The modern game doesn’t have much room for one-dimensional players. And at the 3, versatility is everything. A small forward has to be able to punish you in the paint, stretch you beyond the arc, attack closeouts, create for others, and make the defense pay for whichever matchup it chooses. That’s the art. If you put a big on me, I’m too quick and shifty. If you put a guard on me, I’m too big and athletic. So I use both. Give me a smaller defender and I’ll attack the rim. Send a second defender and I’ll find the open man. Drive into the paint and force the defense to collapse, and suddenly a shooter is standing wide open. But it works the other way too. When I consistently knock down threes, the big has to step away from the paint. That space changes everything. The lane opens up. Driving angles become cleaner. Closeouts become longer. And now the defense has to choose between giving up a 3 or giving up an advantage at the rim. That’s why the 3 is so important. The best small forwards don’t just score—they change the geometry of the floor. Paul George is a perfect example. His value has never been limited to one way of scoring. He can shoot over smaller defenders, attack bigger ones, create off the dribble, make plays when defenses send help, and defend multiple positions. That kind of versatility forces a defense to constantly adjust. Modern basketball is built around spacing, closeouts, rotations, and creating advantages. The more threats you have on the floor, the more ground a defense has to cover—and the harder every rotation becomes. That’s what I’m trying to show in these clips. Not just scoring. Reading the matchup. Creating the advantage. Forcing the defense to react. Too fast for the bigs. Too big for the guards. A threat inside. A threat outside. That’s the art of the small forward.

I was already hyped after winning the dunk contest… but having a swarm of my guys run over and celebrate with me made the moment that much more special. That’s what a team is supposed to be. It’s not just about who scores the most points or who gets the spotlight. It’s about the teammate who picks you up after a bad game. The teammate who believes in you when you’re struggling. The teammate who celebrates your success like it’s their own. Support creates trust. Celebration creates connection. And connection creates teams that are willing to fight for each other. Research in team psychology consistently shows that positive teammate interactions, shared celebrations, and recognition can strengthen cohesion, motivation, and a sense of belonging. Those things matter when the game gets hard because teams that trust one another are more capable of communicating, staying resilient, and working toward a common goal. And it doesn’t have to be a championship. Celebrate the dunk. Celebrate the hustle play. Celebrate the assist. Celebrate the defensive stop. Celebrate the kid who finally hit the shot they’ve been working on for months. Celebrate the small wins together, because those moments build the culture that leads to the big wins. When you’re facing a difficult challenge, knowing the guys beside you have your back changes everything. Championship teams don’t just have talent. They have support, trust, accountability, encouragement, and celebration in their DNA. Be the teammate who makes everyone around you better — and make sure you celebrate them when they do. 🏀🤝 Team > Individual. Always. Train Like a Pro!

One of the most underrated skills in basketball isn’t your jump shot—it’s how quickly you can find the rim. In games, defenders close out fast, passing windows are small, and you rarely have more than a fraction of a second to shoot. The faster your eyes locate the basket, the faster your body can organize itself into a balanced shooting position. In this workout, I start facing away from the basket, perform different combo moves, then turn, immediately locate the rim, get my feet set, and fire. The goal isn’t just making shots—it’s training your brain and body to work together under time pressure. Sports science shows that elite athletes develop faster visual processing, reaction time, and perception-action coupling—the ability to take in visual information and instantly turn it into movement. By repeatedly locating the basket and shooting without hesitation, you’re training your eyes to find the target faster, your feet to get underneath you quicker, and your shot to become more automatic. The result? • Faster shot preparation. • Quicker release. • More confidence. • Better game-speed decision making. Don’t just practice shooting when everything is perfect. Practice finding the basket first—because in real games, that’s often the hardest part. Train your eyes. Train your feet. Train your shot. Then trust the work. Train Like a Pro!
