Preface
The motivation for writing this book comes from over 30 years of coaching basketball players from youth to NBA level. There are many books available on basketball
team play. Some of these concentrate on team drills. My previous book, Becoming a Basketball Player: Individual Drills, contains drills that you can practice
alone. This book focuses on the development of fundamental skills and their integration into team play through individual, small group, and team leadup drills.
This book is a resource for teachers and coaches. It is also a guide for parents who want to encourage their youngsters. But primarily this book has been written for
you, the player. Players who love the game continually seek ways to improve. They ask, What is the most important attribute for becoming a better player? I strongly
believe that desire and selfconfidence are the key factors to success. That you have purchased this book and are taking the time to read it demonstrates your desire.
Disciplined practice of the principles contained in the book will improve your skills and build your confidence.
Basketball is unique because it is not only the ultimate team game but also an individual game. Improving yourself as a player helps your team. Basketball, more than
any other sport, requires integration of individual talent into unselfish team play. First, it requires the sound execution of fundamental skills, which, once learned, can be
connected into the game. Drills are used to instill confidence, to transfer skills to game situations, and to contribute toward longterm enjoyment of playing basketball.
Despite the size, conditioning, and talent of today's basketball players, who succeeds and who fails in the sport is still determined by who possesses fundamental skills.
Larry Bird, Magic Johnson, and Michael Jordan are examples of players who had obvious physical talent for the game but who reached their high level of
performance because they practiced hard and often to become proficient in every basketball fundamental and then used those skills to maximize the performance of
their teammates. Larry Bird is a great example of a player who practiced often. After dominating other players on a playground in Gary, Indiana, in the summer before
his high school junior year, Larry was asked by one of his friends if he had been playing much ball. Bird's answer was simple: "Every day, all day."

New York Knicks
coach Pat Riley talks about Magic Johnson as a role model, saying, "The most fundamental player I've ever been around in my life was Magic Johnson. People don't
understand that. They saw all the flash. He made those plays too, but he was very solid, fundamental."

Michael Jordan derived sheer joy in playing and was so
obsessed with winning that he constantly pushed himself to work harder than anyone in practice. Jordan cared about fulfilling his potential, and he is a model for those
who strive to bring out the best in themselves.
The fundamental skills of basketball include footwork, shooting, passing and catching, dribbling, rebounding, using moves with the ball, moving without the ball, and
defending. You and your coach should determine priorities. However, many young players become frustrated when they cannot shoot or handle the ball. Confidence
building offensive skills should be emphasized early because these skills take more time to master than skills that do not involve the ball.
Improvement for the more advanced player comes from game competition and individual practice. Seek out the strongest competition. Strong competition helps you
improve and also reveals your weaknesses. Work to overcome these weaknesses. It is easy to practice something you already do well, and that is what average
players do. The way to get better is to make your weaknesses your strengths. If you have trouble shooting, learn to shoot the correct way, and then practice. Correct
practice fosters improvement. If you have trouble dribbling with your weak hand, for instance, practice dribbling with that hand. If you need to improve your defensive
quickness or jumping ability, practice defensive footwork and jumping drills. You will not
