Deron Williams Nike Basketball Skills Academy
July 16th, 2010 by napa high
The Deron Williams Nike Basketball Skills Academy was held in Chicago and featured 20 of the top high school and 10 of the top college point guards in the country. Players were put through intense, two-a-day workouts that included a variety of drills and competitive situations. Deron Williams was amazing and was very involved at every workout. He showed the players how to handle a pick & roll, gave them a myriad of “finishes” around the basket, and explained the “small things” players need to do daily to have a chance to play in the NBA. For more great insight from some of basketball’s best, please read Blog.StrongerTeam.com.

@thenextprototype While I would be flattered to get an NBA offer, I absolutely love what I am doing right now and strongly prefer working with high school age players!

who is number 30? Shumpert?
July 16th, 2010 at 9:46 pm
@illini799 For the most part… any move you see guys like Steve Nash or CP3 or Kobe or Deron do in a game… they have practiced it thousands and thousands of times!
July 16th, 2010 at 9:46 pm
Pretty amazing how so many of these moves are truly scripted depending on the situation in front of the player, rather than a superior athlete simply trying to ad-lib every move. I always used to think to myself, “Do these guys practice ridiculous moves like these?” Now, it’s pretty clear that they actually practice this intensively.

Great stuff..thanks for sharing and giving us a glimpse of these guys working hard. A bit of caution on the move at 1:49 for guys not in the NBA yet..it’s a travel that some refs that are paying attention to the pivot foot might call. Pivot foot shouldn’t lift and return to floor before the shot. Not hating..actually loving the workouts.
