Coach Casey Colussi

I understand extending full court to use up time with 5 seconds or less, but with 9 seconds? It's not worth the risk of giving an immediate advantage to the offense. Also, why is the defender fighting over the top of that initial screen? Go under and meet him on the other side.

Blessed to receive an offer from the University of Olivet, thank you coach Kortez and coach Hargraves! @troyathenshoops @TheDZoneBBall

Have you noticed this SUPER IMPORTANT trend in the NCAA tournament? Half of your shots come off the catch! And according to analytics (HS to NBA and WNBA), they're the highest Points Per Shot or EFG%. Each additional dribble you take after the catch, your shooting percentage goes down. Make sure your offseason workouts are aligned with this! Offseason workouts should contain these elements after a game-like cut: - Shots off the catch - Shots off 1 dribble > finishing move - shots off 1 dribble > pull up jumper - Shots off dribble move > finishing move - Shots off dribble move > pull up jumper - 1v1 and 2v2 games The 1v1 and 2v2 games replicate the action you're trying to practice. That way, they get used to shooting and make decisions against live defenders.

Love this tradition. Congrats on a great career, seniors!

Can't wait to celebrate these guys tonight!!!

We’ve been lucky to have Cainan play 3 years of varsity basketball as well. Davenport is getting a heck of player and person. Congrats Cainan!

She gets it. Her parents get it. This is how you maximize your basketball experience.

This is my annual plea for the NCAA to adopt 4 quarters for men's basketball with the free throws resetting after each quarter. No one wants to watch a free throw competition every game.
