I got basketball tryout tomorrow
Best of luck! 🤞
Let me know how it goes
@@joshsmilerbasketball I did good toady I am good at running and defense
@@fredbear5941 glad to hear!
@@joshsmilerbasketball good news I am manger of high school team this year
I have so much competition for my team… Can you give me some tips on how to stand out or something that will make my coach notice me?
Hustle. Coaches want players who are willing to dive for loose balls, grab rebounds and run the floor. Another way to stand out is to be in elite shape. It’s not fun but it’s what’s made TJ McConnell so successful. Plenty of conditioning drills available online. If you’re in better shape you can outrun competition and be less tired towards the end of drills. Finally excel in your role. If you’re a SG knock down shots. PG, run the offense etc. you got this!
@@joshsmilerbasketball thank you so much. I have tryouts tomorrow.
Of course! Let me know how they go
What should I do the day right before the tryouts
Get a lot of rest! Eat clean food and watch some of your favorite players highlights to take off some stress. You got this!
@ I appreciate it man I got 30 mins left
Did this drill its very hard
I got tryout tomorrow
Good luck!! Anything I can help with last minute? Let me know how they go!

You got this, control what you can control!
@joshsmilerbasketball thank you bro I'll let you know how it went tomorrow after school that's when I find out the roster
got tryouts this this nov 12-14th. i’ve been cut 2 years in a row. i am now a junior. freshman year i had no idea what i was doing, sophomore year I believe i was unfairly cut, and junior year i have been non-stop grinding. trying out for varsity. My problem is the stress that comes and dealing with in in 5v5 bball. wish me luck 🙏
@@wubbster498 I will wish you the best of luck! You can do it! If you’ve got time checkout my tryout masterclass: ua-cam.com/video/D44ClGmAXno/v-deo.html I know this will help a lot!
How did you do?
Went well?
I got tryouts in 2 days can you help me by answering some questions?
Yes’
@@joshsmilerbasketball i have a really low arc and im the tallest player(6'0) what should i do
@ do the shots go in? If they do, don’t worry about it. At your height, get to the rim!! Easy layups and rebounds should be yours!
@@joshsmilerbasketball the shots keep hitting the front of the rim and sometimes the back.
@@T3nzy10 might depend on where you are aiming. I usually aim for right in the center of the net! If they are short, a higher arc might work better! Tryouts are probably when you'll see this, so control what you can control!
I got tryouts on wenesday thanks
Best of luck! Checkout my tryout masterckass before then: (30 Mins) ua-cam.com/video/D44ClGmAXn/v-deo.html I think you’ll find it helpful I’m here if you need anything before then

did you make it bro?
I’ve been outside practicing my left hand and I am getting pretty tuff with it thanks for your help and teaching me how to use my left hand
Awesome to hear that you’re working on it! Make sure to get game reps in!! Play 1 on 1 and only score with your left hand!
@@joshsmilerbasketball ok that’s a good idea I’m about to face my dad in a 1v1 so I will try that
3 man weave,just go behind the person you pass to, learned this in 7th grade.
Yes, but the visual demonstration may help those who are confused!
I've been nervous about my tryouts, but your videos are helping me calm down, thank you man!!
I'm glad this has helped eased the nerves! Any other tryout questions you have?
Carbs are a short term energy source. You want to eat protein early in the day. If you need energy eat carbs right before the game.
You’re right, carbs are for quick energy, but they’re important to have on hand before a game, too!
got tryouts in abour 20 minutes
How did it go?
@@joshsmilerbasketball VERY GOOD I THINK ITS BECAUSE OF THIS VIDEO. i got a block man im also a freshman in high school i will be back tmrw morning to tell you if i made it or not
@@speedsterao9let’s go! Can’t wait
@@speedsterao9update?
I have tryout tomorrow evening
Let’s go! Any last minute questions I can help with? Let me know how it goes
@@joshsmilerbasketball any tips like in-game tips?
1. Be a pest on defense. Dive for loose balls, make the hustle plays, and go for every rebound. 2. Stick to your strengths. If you’re a great ball handler showcase that ability to get by your defender and get to the rim. If you’re a great shooter, make sure you knock down your open shots. 3. Control your attitude and effort. Be one of the players that has a next play mentality. You lose the ball or defender gets by you; doesn’t matter worry about the next play. Not sure if you’ve seen it yet, but I have an entire playlist that might have some of the drills, your coach will use a tryouts and other helpful videos: ua-cam.com/play/PLHw69QNOZcYgnzNzTMnJwMlFWgLK4LyBm.html&si=iXZRVAoyNqGI8yj8
@@joshsmilerbasketball I think my defense is my strength,not sure about my other aspects like dribbling and rebounding. but they say it will just come as you got into rhythm?
@@joshsmilerbasketball thanks for your tips sir
I’ve been to both of my tryouts but left like 25 minutes early the second day and I am going to the third day what are my chances I make the team?
How do you feel like you did in the first two days? Has Coach cut anyone yet? If so, how many players are left? Did you play on the team last year? As you can see, many factors in play here
No I have not played last year this is my first year
I have been trying my best
But coach has not cut anyone yet
What grade are you in? Keep doing your best!!
My 7 th grad tryouts are in 3 months, your tryout 101 series really helped me with those drills!
This makes my day. I’m glad tryout 101 helped you. I’m here if you have any questions before tryouts.
dis is finna help me tmr
Best of luck at your tryouts tomorrow! Give it your all, and control what you can control: attitude and effort! Let me know how it goes!
