I was in Plano for a basketball camp and my coach, Coach Black, screeched his whistle to get into warm-up lines. We got into warm-up lines and warmed-up. After warm-ups we all got a partner and did a one on one drill to work on our handles with a defensive pressure.

Me and my partner, Jeremy, got together as a group. I was on offense first so he could stretch out on defense. I took the basketball from my partner. We were the first group up so I dribbled to court and went around the dummy. I took a stutter step inside then went behind the back to the outside. Once I got my inside shoulder around him I did the Shame God on  y partner and he fell. I did a step back and knocked down a three-pointer. His ankles were gone to another planet, the planet was called Ankleopia. Ankleopia is the planet where all the ankles go after being broken on the basketball court.


My partner got up and went to find another partner. I chose a tall high school kid to do the drill with. He was pretty good in the paint but his ball handling skills weren’t very good. All I had to do was bring the ball outside and then go behind the back to the inside. After that I did a basic cross over to the outside again and then hit a jumper mid range. He almost fell but didn’t. Coach Black told me to go sit and get a drink for a little so the other kids could work on the drill too.
