Two things I'd want JA working on this summer.
Conditioning and lower body strength. He's going to play a ton of minutes this year. Probably close to 35 mpg. He would get gassed some times last season. He has to learn how to pace himself within the game (a delicate art that truly informed posters could discuss in more detail) and improve his overall conditioning.
Lower body strength goes hand in hand with conditioning. It will help him elevate correctly on jump shots and give him a more explosive takeoff for layups and be better able to handle contact on drives.
