While the basketball season may not start anytime soon, my goal is to give you resources now that you can use on day 1 of your practices. That’s how important I (and more and more coaches I talk to) think special situations (i.e., end-of-quarter/half, late game, OOBs) are to success of your team this season.
The first resource is a mic’d up session where we talk with players about what to think about, what to prioritize, and how to better execute these types of situations. (Full transparency, we don’t execute well in the video.)
The second resource is our special situations tournament. We take one set of situations 2-3 times per week. They don’t take long. But because of the nature of their design, they create all sorts of scenarios your players will face over the course of the season.
With this week’s resources, your team will be more prepared when the lights are brightest!
