He defended well, good contests, but Booker is ridiculous.That’s a tough assignment for Hawkins guarding Booker. Great experience though playing against an NBA All Star.
Not that I disagree, but I don’t think all shooters have to be balanced to make a good percentage. I feel like Shabazz leaned on every shot.He defended well, good contests, but Booker is ridiculous.
Jordan has a tendency to have a slight backwards lean/fadeaway on his shot instead of being correctly balanced, especially off the dribble. Check the shot at 2:00 which he misses pretty badly vs. the one at 3:50 that he steps into. Balance is night and day. In recent years, VItal and Martin both saw big improvements in their shooting %'s just by keeping their balance perfect and consistent. Some of it is getting stronger so you don't think you need to kick forward. Confident staff is working on this with him.
That last fade away by Booker was unreal.Got cooked by Booker, but can’t be mad at that defense. Great contests, he’s just guarding an NBA all star. Those shots are misses against college competition. Good stuff to see
The offense was a little concerning, but I won’t put too much stock in a 5 minute summer camp video
How do people get into these camps? Is it by invitation?
Do we know AJ definitely isn't? Did we know Hawkins was before yesterday?Why isn't AJ attending any of these camps?
Is AS attending and forward/big guy camps?
Puts into perspective how good these guys are. It all looks so effortless yet if I took 100 of those shots uncontested, maybe I’d make 10 lolThat last fade away by Booker was unreal.

The three he made was nice. A good shot off a good pass. The midrange was nice too, scrappy and soft touchWhat was concerning about the offense?
He was 2-4 shooting.
KO came to one of my practices and made 22 of 25 wide open 3 pointers. And he was not a good shooter. These guys are incredible players.Puts into perspective how good these guys are. It all looks so effortless yet if I took 100 of those shots uncontested, maybe I’d make 10 lol
If you’re not concerned you’re not paying attentionI am very concerned.
I think Brian Scalabrine said it to a random trash talker once: “I’m closer to Lebron than you are to me”KO came to one of my practices and made 22 of 25 wide open 3 pointers. And he was not a good shooter. These guys are incredible players.
That aha moment for me was watching Oriakhi and Chuck nailing open threes before practice one day in the field house. Both easily over 60% and both “bad shooters” for the level. And those guys weren’t even NBA players.KO came to one of my practices and made 22 of 25 wide open 3 pointers. And he was not a good shooter. These guys are incredible players.
Devin Booker didn't attack the basket either.Chris Paul is nasty is what I got out of this video. I like another poster is worried that it looks like Hawkins hasn't tightened up his handle. He didn't attack the basket once and looked like just a shooter on the outside. He needs to add some creativity to his game to get to the next level unless he becomes a knock down 3 point shooter which would be sad as he has the athletic talent for much more.
