Ethan Khoza says basketball players should identify if they're top three or four in their conference at one skill: shooting, rebounding, facilitation, or inside presence. If yes, double down on it. If no, pick one area to improve until you are.
Are you one of the three or four best shooters in your conference? Are you one of the three or four best rebounders in your conference? Are you one of the three or four best facilitators in your conference? Are you one of the three or four best inside presences in your in your conference, in your district? Whatever. And chances are, if you can say yes to that, then you probably have a trait that will translate. And if you can't say yes to that, then that lets you know that you need to focus on becoming better at that area. Right? Whatever. Again, being honest with yourself, saying, hey, this is what I already kind of do well, and doubling down on that and becoming great at it. Again, there's no use in being okay at a bunch of different things. You've got to be great at at least one thing. And when we say great, we really mean, hey, am I one of the three or four best in my area at this or in my league at this? And if you really want to ensure that that's something that catches people's attention, that's what you got to focus on being.
