Josh Hart is one of the best transition finishers in the NBA!
This edit dives into how Hart uses cross-step footwork in transition to take advantage of an exposed hip from a defender.
Hart has been one of the best in basketball at the CS since he entered the league.
The CS pick-up helps him turn the defender's hips and puts him in a position to absorb contact while still being able to finish by putting him in a goofy/wrong foot situation on his jump.
Teaching point for players watching: Drive all the power from the step before your gather step, and DO NOT touch the ball with both hands before your gather step hits the ground.
