The Mental Game – Developing a confident swagger, leadership, team before self mentality, mental toughness, and knowing what motivates you.
As a point guard, you have to be a scoring threat at all times. Improve your ball quickness and hand-eye coordination, develop a “go to” spot on the court where you know you can get a basket, and learn to play through contact, finish strong and score. In addition, Derrick Rose shares a favorite drill he uses to improve his shooting range.

To be a great point guard, you have to be able to guard the ball. Learn three key areas where you can improve your on-ball defense immediately.

Sit in on an in-depth discussion between Calipari, Rose and Strickland on the intangibles of point guard play.
