You absolutely can build yourself through training and mechanics to leap from say 88 to 95.  People who work hard (especially building weight through strength and working with knowledgeable coaches) make that jump all the time.

Steph Curry wasn't Steph Curry in HS or even college, hence why he played at Davidson.  Not exactly a D1 powerhouse.  Go look at the thousands of hours he spent honing his skills.

All three of the above play on National travel teams and are putting in enormous amounts of training.  They didn't just show up one day and throw 95.[/quote]
Lmfao. This is such a delusional take.

You can't just work hard to get to throwing 95. Otherwise everyone would just work hard and throw 95. Its the same way you can't just work hard to running a sub 10 sec 100m dash or 4 min mile. You have to have the genetic gift to get to the elite level. Do you really believe these kids just worked harder than the guy next to them?

You have to win the genetic lottery to throw in the mid/high-80s...which thousands of kids win.  You can absolutely work hard to go from the high 80s to 95.  Happens all the time with kids that bulk up and work with great coaches that know how to change mechanics and condition/strengthen a player.[/quote]

You know what is statistically more likely to happen to those kids whose Dad’s insist if they just work harder they can throw 95?
