My situation is tough. I got into basketball in january 2023 around my 14th birthday already. Also, i am Brazilian, and we don’t have great organized sports incentives in school. Last year i didn’t know how to dribble a ball, now i can do jabsteps, crossovers, between the legs and a bunch of other stuff. My shot is improving a lot too, but i think i just got into the sport too late to have any professional goals. If i had had the incentives earlier, my goal would have been to go pro in the NBB (Brazilian league) or might even the NBA. Thanks for all who stopped by to read. Stay strong and you’ll make it anywhere.

Giannis Antentokounmpo is one if he best players in the NBA. He has a hall of fame calibre resume and he started playing basketball by the age of 16-18. Giannis is proof that it’s never to late to start. Unless ur 22 or something 😅

[@zelli8344]

oi irmão então, também sou brasileiro, muita coincidência te encontrar aqui, mas vou dar uma dica pra você, você não tá nem PERTO de começar tarde no basquete, você começou em um bom tempo, tipo nao é melhor né, mas com esforço e dedicação você consegue chegar lá, um dos exemplos seria embiid (o atual mvp) e o hakeem olajuwon (nao preciso nem comentar né) eles dois COMEÇARAM a jogar basquete com 15 anos, pegue um exemplo de hakeem olajuwon, um nigeriano que jogava futebol, mas era muito alto, por jogar futebol ele tinha um "footwork" insano pra um cara da sua altura, então ele trabalhou muito nessa parte, e hoje ele tem o melhor footwork da história, com provavelmente os melhores post moves de tds os tempos tbm, vou te dar uma dica, veja alguns drills, aplique eles, mas nunca faça uma rotina específica, treine coisas que você seja naturalmente bom, e também treine coisas que futuramente pode te ajudar, e um dos mais importantes vá em rachões ou coisas assim, esse é um dos mais importantes (eu nao sei onde vc mora) mas tente jogar o máximo de jogos possíveis e crie uma boa mentalidade para você conseguir passar em uma peneira de um time, entende oque eu tô flnd ? é isso irmão tmj

Watch this video: kzbin.info/www/bejne/a5ariHumjr-oabcsi=H2k1uOSUcKTc4ez0 There’s a million things you can do but to keep it simple: do things faster, add in defense, make something purposely harder by making the pass worse or the footwork a little off, add pressure to your shots and goals you need to hit to finish certain drills

This is what I’m hoping to do. I’m in 8th grade rn and I need some advice. Every game I go into no matter what I do I feel like there’s a bunch of pressure, when in reality middle school doesn’t mean much, but I can’t help it. Ik what ok doing but it all like washes away during the game. Along with that I just came back from a broken forearm where both bones broke and one was in half so I’m still mentally recovering. Anything I can do before the game to prevent this?

For anyone that has any tips of how I can make it to the nba/nbl/nba g league or euro league (any big league that pays well and is popular like the ones I listed) that would be great. I am a young teen, I have good height genetics, and I have a good work ethic. What should I do to make my chances of going big greater?

[@jordanthejellyfishcash4246]

To make NBA you have to really excel in high school or college. Try to increase your exposure by playing in higher profile leagues like competitive aau and tournament club teams that are known for good comp. There will usually be more scouts there which can get you recruited or even ranked depending on where you are playing. When you get recruited you have to grind relentlessly to stand out from the college players specifically if you go D1. This is because they all were also one of the best and excelled on their previous teams. So you have to go to bigger measures to to stand out. Usually you need something specifically spectacularly special about your game like very good iq like a floor general lights out shooter or a freak athlete or size. Then either declare for the draft or tryout for a g league team. When you make it do good in the g league and get moved up and sign a partial contract with an NBA team. And if you prove your worth you can be an official player on the roster.keep grinding and I Hope this helps

Practice isnt how many hours but what you're doing for that many hours. But ideally, you should be practicing by yourself for at least 2-4 hours a day. It's okay to skip some days. Practice isn't perfection, it is consistency
