HEY OCTOBER, WHADDYA SAY?!

Play off two feet, show the ball🗣️🗣️

Once a player hits two shots, the court opens up. Defenders get lazy, and by the time they want to guard, it's too late. If the big doesn't guard, he's shooting! #NBA #basketball

It's personal when someone scores. The shift to defensive player is real – a mindset forged in battles against GAs, where respect is earned through hard fought lockups. #DefenseWins #Basketball #Defense

From last in the league to a 10-game win streak: it's wild how fast things can change when preparation meets opportunity. The first 20-20 game in league history? "It was just all adrenaline." #basketball #opportunity

Why is scoring 34 points overseas "not Asia [or] Puerto Rico" considered a 60-point game? The difference in spacing may shock you. #NBA #Basketball #NBA #Basketball

Rebs were well represented at @Tufbuckets today. College basketball legend, Marshall Henderson pulled up to the studio. Episode coming soon!! Special s/o to @Young_Moody42 @ChrisWarrenJit @CoachAK13

Raising hoopers? One parent shares how their kids gravitated to the game differently. One was a natural, locking into NBA games at 3 years old! Amazing to witness. #BasketballKids #SportsParents

Vets in the game see it all—they anticipate plays based on experience. It's second nature to know your opponent's next move. Angles, tendencies—it's all about knowing what's coming. #Basketball #Defense #Basketball #Defense

From zero minutes to averaging 25—a transformation fueled by daily fundamental training. The body adapts, strength grows, and suddenly, from 6'2" to 6'5" by freshman year. "It happened outta nowhere!" #basketball #growthmindset

The untapped potential of young, international athletes is "insane." In 20 years, the league could be 50% non-American, with raw talent too good to ignore. #GlobalBasketball #NBADraft #GlobalBasketball #NBADraft

Before scholarships and top recruit status, it was all about the work. A player recalls listening to coaches and replicating his dad’s soccer training: "If you consistently do these things, maybe you'll be good." #SportsMotivation #AthleteMindset

Your journey ain’t for everybody to understand. Some will judge, but ten more will be inspired. Keep walking in your own shoes—your story could be the one that sparks someone else’s breakthrough. 🏀🔥 #TUF

Nothing beats the feeling of repping your country. Imagine playing against China, in China, during the World Cup... and winning? "The craziest drug in the world" doesn't even compare. The ultimate high. #basketball #basketball #worldcup

Toronto Raptor Jamal Shead hosted his 4th annual Back-to-School basketball camp The Manor grad helped nearly 200 kids grow their game without paying a dime "For the kids just means everything for them and it means everything to me that I can do it for them" #WeTheNorth |
