Hello everyone! Welcome to SLOW (Skillfully Learning Offensive Weaponry) Development. With over 30 years of basketball experience and knowledge, my goal with each athlete is to maximize their potential by focusing on fundamentals to create efficient, effective, basketball players. Progression is the movement and 1% better everyday is the mantra. Let's hit the court and get to it!
"The lesson with Daryl focused quite a bit on shooting drills, which really helped me refine my technique. Though reviewing what I’m working on can sometimes feel repetitive, I still appreciated the emphasis on solid fundamentals. Still, I think going over progress more frequently might make the lessons even more effective. But yeah, I’d say try Daryl if you want structured training that pays attention to detail.

"In my lessons with Coach Jhazeal, I went from averaging 4pts a game to averaging 22pts a game. He helped me grow 500% better in on court performance. He helped me understand that performance anxiety is common but continuous work and practice will slowly dissolve that problem and he was right. Our practices are always fun and motivating. He even came to some of my games to help cheer me on which made me feel even better. I highly recommend.
