"Thank you
With years of experience playing against top-tier talent and being coached by professional trainers, I bring a level of expertise that sharpens not just your basketball skills—dribbling, shooting, footwork, post moves—but your mental toughness as well. My training builds muscle memory that transcends the court, giving you the confidence and discipline to excel both on and off the game
"Honestly, I found the lesson quite helpful, especially in how Javonntie was able to teach me. Though I still have some areas to improve, I appreciate the way he explained things clearly. The lesson's highlight was definitely his ability to teach me, which made a difference. Still, I think incorporating more drills related to shooting could help me sharpen my skills further. But overall, I’d be open to trying another lesson with Javonntie soon.

Hi I'm coach JD and I'm 28 years old. I have been playing basketball since I was 6 and have years of experience coaching at the high school level. Being a good basketball player you have to be consistent, have a hard work ethic, and be coachable. Working on your skills is just as important as playing the game. That creates growth and separation in your game. If you want to be better, be different. Are you ready to elevate your game to the next level? Let's work!
With over 10 years of development of players, I focus on the growth through skill-building and strategic insight. My passion is unlocking potential on and off the court, and I focus on fundamentals with enthusiasm. Also 5 years of coaching collegiate basketball
"We just started not too long ago & everything he preached about how my game can get better is showing
With a decade dedicated to developing basketball talent, I blend strategic insights with enthusiastic instruction. My coaching philosophy focuses on building fundamental skills, fostering teamwork, and igniting a lasting passion for the game. I help players reach their full potential.
"Coach Jay and I only worked together briefly, but it was enough to make a difference. He brought a level of purpose that pushed me to be more locked in every time I stepped on the court. Now playing at Eastern Arizona College, I still carry that mindset with me. Short time, but it definitely left its mark.
For over 15 years, I've been a part of the basketball community. I’ve played at the Division 1 level, as well as the professional level overseas. I’ve trained multiple middle school and high school prospects, as well as some at the college level. My passion and desire is to help improve every part of your game, while making sure we don’t lose the main reason why we all started playing, which was for fun.
With 10 years of playing experience and 3 years of coaching experience, I am passionate about helping athletes grow on and off the court. I have coached a 4th–6th grade co-ed basketball team and provided private lessons for athletes of different ages and skill levels. My coaching style focuses on building confidence, fundamentals, teamwork, and a positive mindset. I give constructive criticism to help players improve while creating an encouraging environment for athletes.
"I really enjoyed being on this team and learned so much during the season. The practices helped me improve my shooting, defense, and teamwork skills. I always felt encouraged to do my best, and it made basketball even more fun for me.

1. Warm-up (15-20 minutes) Dynamic Stretching: Focus on mobility to activate muscles and prevent injury, such as leg swings, hip rotations, and arm circles. Ball Handling Drills: Start with basic dribbling exercises, such as stationary and moving ball handling drills (e.g., crossovers, behind-the-back, and two-ball dribbling). This gets your hands and mind engaged and prepares you for game-like movements. 2. Skill Development (30-45 minutes) Shooting Drills: Work on shooting mechanics, starting with form shooting and progressing to spot shooting (catch and shoot, off the dribble, etc.). Focus on consistency, footwork, and shot selection. Finishing Drills: Practice finishing around the rim with different moves—layups, floaters, and dunks. Focus on footwork, timing, and using both hands. Footwork and Pivoting: Exercises like jab steps, triple-threat position, and attacking the basket off the dribble. Ball Handling & Decision Making: Increase the intensity with full-court ball-handling drills, adding pressure and using different moves to beat defenders. This is critical for maintaining control under defensive pressure. 3. Game Situations (20-30 minutes) 1-on-1, 2-on-2, or 3-on-3 Scrimmage: These controlled competitive drills simulate real game situations. Focus on applying your skills in a fast-paced, high-intensity environment. Work on spacing, movement off the ball, and decision-making under pressure. Pick-and-Roll, Defensive Shell, or Offensive Sets: Run through specific plays or strategies, focusing on timing, communication, and execution. This helps refine basketball IQ and team play. 4. Strength & Conditioning (20-30 minutes) Core Strength & Mobility: Exercises like planks, Russian twists, and stability ball work to improve core stability for better balance and explosion. Plyometrics: Jumping drills (box jumps, lateral hops, sprints) to improve explosiveness and vertical leap. Conditioning: Full-court sprints or interval training to build stamina, ensuring you can perform at a high level throughout the game. 5. Cool Down (10-15 minutes) Stretching and Mobility: Focus on flexibility to prevent injury and increase range of motion, using foam rolling and static stretches. Recovery: Briefly go over any feedback, mental focus, or areas for improvement. Reflect on the session, and prepare for the next one. 6. Mental/Film Session (Optional) Watch game footage or breakdown specific plays to improve basketball IQ, recognizing tendencies, and learning how to read defenses and offenses more effectively. Summary: A training session is a comprehensive mix of physical conditioning, skill refinement, tactical application, and mental development. It’s all about maintaining a high level of intensity, focusing on detail, and making sure every repetition contributes to improving as a player. The session could last anywhere from 1.5 to 3 hours, depending on the intensity and specific goals for that day.

More game based. Keeping things fun. I want to make sure that basketball stays fun and engaging. The goal is to keep mettle high and not thwart what they view as a fun sport with, “boring drills.” Although they are of importance, kids have the tendency to back away from things that seem difficult or uncomfortable. My goal is to be the opposite of that!

Adapting to working with kids i believe is really giving them the skillset and foundation to be able to do anything on the court, and instilling confidence and the mindset of just getting better everyday. Pushing them to work hard but also allowing them to work through mistakes and goals
