WHAT’S AN NBA GLEAGUE TRYOUT LIKE ? (Recap and Tips)

open and being able to create and get rid of teammates, so it was really good, we ended up losing, they beat us, but that was the game where I was able to really show, you know, my whole game even though we lost, We played the first four minutes of that game and I didn't play until the last minute because one of my teammates got hurt, the game was already out of my reach, but I still wanted to play hard so you know, play for The clocks came to zero and after we established the last game, it was all over.

Dwayne Casey, the head coach of the Detroit Pistons, watched the whole ordeal, so the game we lost by 15 or 20 I was actually on the sideline watching that game. So after I walked up to him, I said, "Hey, thanks for having me, thanks for checking out," and he was like, "Hey, man,

what

's your name?" so I said, “My name is Jamie Johnson,” and he said, “Oh, man, it's nice to meet you.” You're from where you're from, so I'm like I'm from Louisville, Kentucky, I came to find out that he's from Kentucky and he's also from Morgantown or like Union Kentucky, something like that, and then we connected there, he was telling me how he was in the city or

what

not and then he came in talking about the game, so he's like, man, I really like your game, you're fast, I love the way you talk, I love the way you compete, keep working hard and the coaches should let you know something very soon, so I left.

Detroit as a man, these coaches really like my game, they like me defensively, uh, obviously, I stood out in other ways besides scoring and all that, so I left Detroit feeling really, really good about my five pieces of advice that would give. anyone as far as how to prepare or what to prepare for, uh, test, I would say the number one thing is make sure you're vaccinated, that's the number one thing, like if you're not vaccinated they won't even give you a chance. get in the door even to show your talent two, make sure you're in shape because that NBA court is huge, like it's different than any court that you like and can normally train on, so just make sure you're in shape. shape. after your workouts make sure you do your extra sprints or just while you're in your workouts just make sure you go hard.

I would say go in with confidence, so a lot of guys, uh, can get discouraged because you see other guys doing other things or you know the coaches talking to the players before you guys even go out on the court. Do you like how they know each other already? The coaches have already chosen their players, but they go in with confidence. They play. game, don't go in there trying to do things you don't normally do, fade away as you know, if you don't really practice fade jumpers, don't go in there trying to do fadeaways or if you don't.

If you can't throw no-look passes in the lane or whatever, don't go in trying to be flashy, go in with confidence, play your game and, um, just be unique, you'll get noticed, number four. Make sure, like when the coaches are doing the drills or your defensive or offensive assignments, like the sets they may give you, make sure you pay attention to the details and jump into any position as if you now have no position, so if you're more In the positions that you know, the better off you're going to be to get on the court if you're normally one, try to learn it from two or three, so basically those are the same positions that you're essentially still a number five wing uh. body language make sure your body language is always good makes you always optimistic positive energy um, you miss a shot, the next shot is okay, don't let your head hang, encourage your teammates, you know, pick them up, it's a great experience , don't let something like that go wrong, you know, bring you down, that's my video, I hope it helps you all, make sure to subscribe, like, comment, if you have any advice, if you have attended any tests or plan to go to any try it out, be sure to comment below um.
