You have to be incredibly good to miserably fail without embarrassing yourself at this level.

A 6’6” 220# guy who started for a good D1 team and played significant NCAA tournament minutes described his G (then D) league tryout to me. He went into a scrimmage with current players, tried to defend a guy going for a dunk, and wound up on the floor with a broken nose and the guy who made the dunk standing over him saying “And 1, b——.”

The notion that anyone on this forum imagines that they or anyone they know could play in the G league shows how delusional people are.

My kid was dunking on full grown “good” adult pickup players as a 14 year old, and he will never in a million years have a shot at playing in the G league.

After graduation in May or June he needs to try out a few months later in September. He could have a legitimate chance at making a roster. He cannot allow for 1 or 2 years to pass by and then try out. He needs to try out ASAP after graduation.

Not a shirt. A jersey.

Sigh. No, my kid DOESN’T need to try out because, unlike some of the delusional guys on this board, he’s played in invitation only runs that included current international pros, and he knows, for example, that when he and two seniors (one 6’6” and the other 6’8”) from a recent high-division high school state championship team were all simultaneously fouling an international pro, that guy finished through the contact and made the and-1. He has no illusions about what it takes to play in the G league and thus won’t waste time trying out.

Your son may end up making the team. You never know.

Basketball is a physical n mental sport it’s about making sure u see ur opponent is guarding up close physically but if so u can use ur move set with the ball to get ur defender off u but if not be the fundamental player that spots the better plays for other players to get involved it’s all about the rhythm n space u can get ur shot in upper motion without feeling pressure it’s all about your shooting ability mentality n strength as a player
