Last week I shared how getting into the paint can help you become a better playmaker on the offensive end of the basketball court. Today I am going to share how you can focus on defending the paint on the defensive end so your team isn’t scored on as easily…

Keeping the ball out of the paint on the defensive end of the floor is so important to your team’s success. We talked about the advantage you get as an offensive player in the paint last week and so if you don’t want to give opponents that advantage, you have to focus on defending the paint. I am going to share 3 ways that you as a HS basketball player can get better as a defender with that focus.

Welcome back to Hard Smart Together! I’m Coach Dave, I’m here every week to help basketball players become the smart, confident players that coaches love.

Hope you enjoy!
