How I Transformed My Game: Shooting, Creating, Defense & Passing (200 Sub Special)

In today’s video, I’m breaking down how I actually transformed my pickup basketball game over the years — from shooting and creating my own shots, to defending with space, getting handles, passing better, reading the floor, and learning simple plays with friends that helped everything click.

I talk through the real mistakes I made growing up, what finally started to work, and the practical things any hooper can start doing right now to level up their game. No fluff, just honest advice based on my own experience on the court.

If you’re trying to get better at shooting, creating separation, defending smarter, making the right pass, or just becoming a more complete pickup player — this video is for you.

Thanks for 200 subs!
