About this listen
Learn the Most Important Basketball Skill of All…
Much of today’s basketball training focuses on improving speed, agility, scoring moves, and shooting abilities. While this increases physical skills, it doesn’t teach young athletes the mental ins and outs of the game. Boost Your Basketball IQ teaches players and coaches arguably the most important (and neglected) skill of all: game awareness—a skill that most players often don’t develop until late in their careers.
You’ll learn: Insights, intricacies, and ins and outs that win games. How to do the little things on the court that others overlook that make a huge difference to the outcome of a game. Proven ways to sharpen your mental skills and build a winning mindset. Original drills and skills that you will find nowhere else. Boost Your Basketball IQ gives average players an advantage over the most talented players and makes talented players into superstars.
Listen to this book, learn to ‘think the game,’ become the smartest player on the court, and win more games!
