For most spectators, playing basketball may not seem to be a big deal. They see players dribbling, passing and shooting baskets – or missing some – and think to themselves that that’s all to it. But each and every player knows that to earn a spot in the team, you need to put in a lot of effort, hard work, and dedication to play the game of basketball. “Remember that basketball is a game of habits. If you make the other guy deviate from his habits, you’ve got him” – Bill Russell “Remember that basketball is a game of habits.” Bill Russell is right, and we can’t emphasize enough the importance of a basketball routine and developing a healthy habit out of it. As gyms remain closed for now, consider having your basketball routine right from your own home. Start by doing simple drills and move forward from there. Dribble and pass on Mondays and Fridays, shoot on Tuesdays, and stretch and do station drills on Wednesdays. This not only helps to improve muscle memory and build a strong immune ...

JAMAL MURRAY CONTRIBUTOR The first martial arts movie I ever watched was this old Chinese film called  Five Deadly Venoms.  I was seven years old. My dad and I were sitting in front of the TV on the floor in our living room. It starts out with this old kung fu master and his student. They’re in a temple or a cave somewhere in China and there’s smoke rising from a fire. The student is heating water for the master’s bath. The master is old and dying. He has one last wish. He instructs his student to go on a mission to defeat the master’s five former pupils, who have turned evil. Each of the bad guys has a unique fighting style named for an animal: the Centipede, the Lizard, the Scorpion, the Snake, and the Toad. To take down each one, the master explains, the student will have to learn all five styles. As a kid, a lot of these movies went over my head. I couldn’t really follow the dialogue all the time. But that didn’t matter. I just loved them. Even the fact that they ...

Student-athletes have busy lives, and setting aside time to get organized is critical for successful time management. Identify time at the beginning of the week to lay out what you have coming up. This helps you prioritize what's most important. Differentiate between urgent and important. He uses the example of a paper due tomorrow and an exam in two weeks. The exam is important, but the paper is urgent. Understanding the difference helps you prioritize your efforts. _...

How the Drill Works: Players must complete eight shots (two from each high post) while "under the pressure" of knowing that if they miss the shot, they have to join the same line and try again. Purpose: Allows players to practice shooting open jump shots while under mental pressure. Setup: 4 lines of players on each elbow. Can be as many players as you like. 4 basketballs. One with the first person in each of the lines.   Instructions: 1.  When the coach says to start, the first person in each line takes a shot and returns the ball back to the same line.   If they make the shot they move to the next line, if they miss they join the same line to try again. 2.  This process continues until a player has made a total of eight shots. Scoring System: Each player counts their own amount of makes until they reach eight made shots (make two shots from each elbow). You can decide whether to stop after there is a winner or keep playing until everyone ...
