2. 17 years of professional basketball taught me something:
Your reputation travels faster than you do.
Coaches talk.
Agents talk.
Players talk.
You can be talented enough to get another opportunityâŠ
âŠbut if people donât trust you, those opportunities get harder to find.
3. If youâre a young guard trying to play professionally donât just work on scoring Work on
â Decision making
â Pick & roll reads
â Defense
â Shooting off movement
â Playing without the ball
â Finishing
â Leadership
Coaches can find scorers
They need players who help them WIN

1. A lot of players think talent is what gets you overseas/college It helps.
But coaches want to know:
Can I trust you?
Can you defend?
Can you make the right play?
Can you handle adversity?
Can you help me win
Talent gets you looked at.Being reliable keeps you employed/playing
20 tweets for young pros or people inspiring to play pro basketball and this also goes for college and high school trying to become elite players. You not getting all 20 today lol

Pure bucket @Jpullz0
If youâre a young player, a parent of a player, or just love basketballâŠ
Iâm going to talk about the things most people donât tell you until itâs too late, how players really get opportunities, why talented players get overlooked, what coaches actually notice, and what it takes
Iâve decided Iâm going to start sharing more of what Iâve learned about basketball, the business, playing overseas, development, and what it really takes to make it. No bullshit. No selling dreams. Just real experience from somebody whoâs actually lived it.
Iâve been playing professional basketball for 17 years.
NBA. Europe. Different countries. Different coaches. Different teams. Different situations.
Iâve learned A LOT along the way â some lessons the hard way. With that being said
Replying to @Jpullz0
