Great for players to hear.

@dallasmavs coach Jared Dudley how to impact winning in a world that is obsessed with scoring:

🔒 Defend Multiple Positions
🛞 Drive and Kick Decision Making
🎯 What's Your One Outlier Trait?

Social media glorifies the 20+ point per game scorer. But most teams already have one, or two of those guys.

What they’re really searching for are the players who dominate in the margins: boxing out, sprinting back, diving on the floor, the second effort, the winning habit repeated over and over again.

Your value isn’t determined by how many minutes you get.

It’s determined by what you do with the minutes you've earned.

Because that impact creates trust. And that trust creates opportunity.

And the players who consistently help the team grow usually end up growing themselves.

Spoke with a college coach this past weekend at a live event. We were discussing a player he was gonna watch play. Heard he had great grades, basketball skills, and was athletic. After the game, I asked the coach if he was still interested. Coach said he was not going to recruit him due to lack of hustle during the game. PLAYERS GETTING RECRUITED IS MORE THEN ATHLETICISM AND SKILLS. IT IS ABOUT DESIRE AND HEART. @CRConsultingSD1 @3PointPlayer @D3Direct @PowerNIL_

A weekend at EYBL can humble you quick. The game rewards toughness, cool jackets need to be taken off at the door. Playing hard is the ultimate skill that all young dudes need to learn EARLY!

16 years down and forever to go. Happy Anniversary, Sarah!

🚨TRENDING: Devin Vassell just hit one of the best shots in NBA history:

>Started jumping before he had the ball
>caught the ball mid air
>Continued on his way up
>Shot the ball without dipping it
>BANG

If Michael Jordan did that we'd never see the end of it.

Multi sport all region. Big time performer in athletics and in the classroom. Bright future awaits!

[Nick Jones @CoachJonesACS]

The last thing that impresses me or anybody looking to recruit you at the next level will be your PPG.

Because you can bet as a freshman you wont be used in that capacity and better figure out other ways to impact winning

[Branden Mayweather @CoachMayweather]

Doctor “Coach” Mayweather now

[Greg Berge @GregBerge]

The most undercoached skill in your program?

Effort.

TJ McConnell said it best:

“I genuinely believe that playing hard is a skill, because if it wasn’t, everyone would do it.”

You can’t just demand it.
You have to develop it. https://t.co/8HikuTlZPU

Shai Gilgeous-Alexander on consistency being a muscle you can grow, what discipline is, and why you can't only have it in times of prosperity:

💪 Consistency isn’t a trait you’re born with, it’s a muscle you build. Every time you follow through when it’s inconvenient, you add another rep. The strength doesn't show up until at some point in the future, but it’s earned in the now.

😁 Anyone can be consistent in times of prosperity. The real separator is doing the work when motivation disappears. That’s where identity is truly formed, you find out who you are, not in the spotlight, but in the resistance.

📌 Discipline is doing what matters most when you least feel like acting on it. If you only rely on consistency in good times, it becomes a crutch. If you train it in hard times, it becomes a competitive advantage.

Champions aren’t determined by flashes of greatness, but by how RARELY they drift below their standard of success.

They don’t use the consistency muscle in a reactionary way, instead they train it daily so the habit of success has somewhere to live. 🏠

In & out is the most simple but effective move in basketball.

[Point Made Basketball @pointmadebball]

Remember a couple years ago, when Devin Vassell was trying to find his feet after an injury-riddled off-season, how many Spurs fans felt that they made a mistake in paying him?

Now that he’s playing his true role as a high-level 3nD wing, he’s THRIVING

[The Winning Difference @thewinningdiff1]

"The greatest gift I have is I get to coach a bunch of guys that care about winning and being a part of the culture that we have."
The greatest teams care more about the results than recognition.
Great teams are not built only by great players.
They are built by great teammates.

Devin Vassell on celebrating with Keldon:

“That’s my brother man, we dreamed of times like this.. we went through a lot past couple of years and for us to be engulfed into it is amazing. I would not rather celebrate this with anybody else. KJ’s my dawg.” 🥹
