Creating shots for myself and my teammates. Making threes beyond the arc helps get all of us opportunities. I can finish in the lane, pull up or find open teammates across the court. |
I'm continuing to improve midrange, development in basketball intelligence and simplifying my game while still adding new skills. All of this on the court but I'm also in the weight room to improve strength and speed. |
I very much admire Steph Curry. Though some people look solely at his basketball ability, I like to acknowledge the fact that he has had so much success without the advantage of crazy athleticism or towering height. |
I play baseball and football as well |
