How I Would Train Payton Pritchard | Payton Pritchard Breakdown

In this video, I discuss how I WOULD train NBA player, Payton Pritchard. Payton is a fantastic player and is off to a great start in this league with Celtics, but like everyone, can improve. This is how I would personally train him during an off-season based on what I am seeing in the film.
Payton Pritchard is currently a great role player, coming off the bench and being a great spark, and can score the ball in a hurry, with his role and strengths in mind I think he can improve in a few areas.
Improve his off-the-catch shooting ability even more. Since he gets such a high volume of these shots, it makes sense for him to become great at them. This would mainly consist of high-volume shooting in a variable manner and also including bad passes and purposely messing up his rhythm on his shot. From there he can also really improve his off-the-dribble jump shot so a good portion of reps would go toward that, especially out of the pick-and-roll setting.
The next area I think can improve him is his ability to finish more effectively around the rim, and one thing I think he can ADD is his floater game, using these more in games I think overall will make him more effective as his role or situation changes.
Lastly, improve his ability to be effective in transition and making the right decisions while getting downhill.
Most of this would be trained through the use of specific small-sided games to train these reads and situations in a game-like manner.
Shoutout to celtics journal for the short mix we used

One of my favorite players in the NBA, I love to see Pritchard play to his ability! He's is absolutely gifted in his ball handling skills and definitely overlooked at his potential in the NBA! Great video breaking down Pritchard's gameplay, without a doubt he's got a lot of space to improve. Coming off the bench with limited minutes he's showed his worth and earned these minutes. It can be hard as a bench player to come out and play like a starter because there's streches where you don't even get minutes. He's an underdog player that has the right mentality and is working everyday to get better. I hope he's a Celtic for life because he's really got the potential with the right training and reps!

Thank you for the breakdown. Helpful, clear, love the video footage, I'm going to work on my own floater game and uncomfortable jumpshots!

Great content as always ! How many time do you take to analyse game of a player ?

[@tjltraining]

All depends the higher the level the player plays at the more specific we will be with what we are working on as we are seeking more 1% improvements, as opposed to younger players (high school) we are looking for larger improvements in more broad areas. Say for high school kid 20-30 mins of film is enough, college guys maybe hour, pro and above maybe few hours but all depends

Great video, Question for you though. How did you get access to Synergy? I'm also a trainer in AZ but have been trying to get a synergy account for a few months and they denied me. Please help!

[@tjltraining]

Best bet is through a player or coach at college/ Nba level
