Play Basketball at Pittsburgh Sports Complex

Hi! I’m Coach Dre, and I specialize in helping players unlock their scoring potential while mastering the fundamentals of the game. Whether it’s putting points on the board, creating your own shot, or finishing strong under pressure, my coaching focuses on teaching players how to score efficiently in every situation—even off defensive stops, fast breaks, and tough matchups. My approach is personalized, engaging, and results-driven. Each lesson begins with a skills assessment to identify strengths and areas for improvement. From there, I design custom training sessions that mix technical drills, situational plays, and competitive game-like scenarios. Players not only improve their scoring mechanics—like shooting off the dribble, finishing at the rim, and creating space—but also learn how smart defense, awareness, and positioning can lead directly to points. I work with players of all ages and skill levels, helping beginners develop confidence and solid fundamentals, while advanced athletes refine their offensive arsenal and decision-making under pressure. Lessons are fun, challenging, and fast-paced—I emphasize learning through action, so every session feels like real-game experience while building habits that translate to lasting success on the court. Outside of basketball, I bring energy, patience, and a passion for mentorship. I love seeing players grow not just as athletes but as confident, strategic thinkers who understand the game on a deeper level. My goal is simple: to make you a more effective, versatile, and unstoppable scorer while teaching you the full game behind it. Let’s turn your scoring potential into consistent results!

"Coach Mathis really helped my son find his rhythm as a scorer. They worked on reading defenders, creating space, and staying locked in mentally. His points per game jumped after training with him, and he's more confident in taking the lead during games. Coach is knowledgeable, motivating, and from watching seems fun to train with. Some sessions seemed harder than others, and I see that made all the difference.
