@Mike Carlson is joining SAVI as our Director of Player Development. This is huge. As you know, we're committed to revolutionizing the way the game is taught and played. A NEW way to teach players how to see, think and play the game! The SAVI way. Here's why this matters. 20 years ago, players didn't have instant access to their own film. They had to trust what a coach told them. Now it's different. Film study is the most revolutionary tool in coaching and player development today — and most coaches and most players are not yet using it well or using it enough. We're going to change that. Want to develop IQ? Film. Want to learn reads? Film.Want to improve your shot? Film. Want to score more points? Film.Want more playing time? Film. Larry Bird said it best: "Film don't lie." Mike has been living this for the last six years — and the results, the pro players he's working with have produced! This is why I asked him to lead Player Development at SAVI. A NEW way to teach players how to see, think and play the game! The SAVI way. In his own words, here's the journey. The Mike Carlson Basketball Journey - in his own words I was never recruited. Didn't score 1,000 points in high school. Cut as a freshman from Division 3 Hope College. Walked on at Truman State (D2), redshirted, and earned a scholarship during the redshirt year. Then a coaching change happened, and the new coach told me to find a new school. Through tears at the thought of losing my scholarship, I told coach to put me through workouts and I'd show him what I could do. A week later, coach apologized and said he wanted me on the team. Three years later we won 21 games (we'd only won 7 when I redshirted), and I was named a Division 2 All-American (2014). I played the next ten years professionally. Won 2 championships (2017, 2022), and helped the clubs I played for exceed their goals — wins, playoff appearances, and one Final Four (2023). The single proudest moment of my career was hitting a game-winning three in my first game in the ACB (Spain's top league). There's a lot of meaning behind that shot — a story for another day.

Normally, our weekly consulting calls are for SAVI Basketball members only. But once a month, we open one up to everyone. This week (1/2) is one of those weeks. 🏀 Here's what we'll cover: • A live breakdown of our RDS Offense • How we teach and install it • Live Q&A where you can ask me anything (Practice planning, Offense, Defense, Player development. Culture, Game planning) Bring whatever challenge you're working through, and we'll talk through it together. These live calls have become one of the most valuable parts of our membership because they're driven by coaches' real questions. Looking forward to seeing you there. 📅 Thursday, July 2. 🕠 6:30pm EST 💰 FREE 👇 If you cannot make it live, drop one question you'd like answered. I'll do my best to cover as many as we can live.

Hey Coaches, if you don't have your players in Basketball Training by SAVI, now's the time to get them to join for a month. I'm giving personalized shooting feedback like this. And here's a sample of the daily challenge and lesson we went over today. Just send them this link to try it out free for 7 days, then $47 a month as long as they want training. 📺 TODAY'S LESSON 👉 Watch Day 3 — The Load (Classroom) We break down film of Curry, Jordan Poole, and Tyrese Maxey — every great shooter does the same thing on every catch. Watch before you pick up a ball today. 💪 TODAY'S WORKOUT (30-45 min) We're adding Airdrop footwork today to our Train portion to give another solution for you to use in games to get more shots off. Especially useful on the move or to set feet quickly after a bad pass. FOCUS. Load every catch. Pick ONE of HIPS, HANDS, or POSTURE per set of 10 TUNE shots — that's the takeaway from today's lesson. - Set 1 (Load Shots): HIPS — lower until you feel ground push back - Set 2 (Pistols): HANDS — ball down to your waist, not your chest - Set 3 (Load Shots): POSTURE — eyes up early, chest tall, body follows - You'll feel awkward on at least one. That's the one to dig into. TUNE. - ▶︎ Load Shots × 10 — HIPS - ▶︎ Pistols × 10 — HANDS - ▶︎ Load Shots × 10 — POSTURE (eyes up early) TRAIN. Pick your level — 50, 150, or 300 shots: - JH Shooter: 50 (Airdrops) - HS Shooter: 150 (50 1-foot, 100 Airdrops) - College / Pro: 300 (100 1-foot, 200 Airdrops)
