[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Height, experience, ball handling, dribbling, passing, shooting, teamwork, game sense, coachability.[/quote] This. They are exceptions, but I am aware of a small number HS basketball players with excellent ball handling who made the HS team - despite being shorter, roughly 5’ 6”. They did not make a Div 1 college team, but they did later coach HS basketball.[/quote] These players are almost all point guards, which is the shortest player on the court. However, the point guard is typically the best ball handler and has a huge amount of basketball IQ (elite point guards are running the offense on the floor), so it's usually a kid who has been playing for a very long time under good coaches (which is also why point guards often end up coaching). Tons of kids try out for PG every year and it's probably the most competitive position. [/quote]
