Most people don’t want be pushed that hard. They want 2 be pushed to their level of comfort. You need coaches that push you outside your comfort zone to develop new confidence. They push you to deal with failure. They push you to get back up until you succeed .

I’ve watched a ton of first session games across Nike EYBL, Adidas 3SSB, and Under Armour UAA. Here’s my honest takeaway: Nike EYBL has the most talented and most skilled players, no debate. But there’s also a lot of low IQ basketball at times. Felt like I was watching the Houston Rockets every game. A lot of talent, a lot of chaos. Adidas 3SSB has the best pure basketball product. High IQ plays, strong structure, and real offense being run. It looks the most like college basketball. Under Armour UAA feels like a mix of both, but those kids play the hardest. There’s a real earned-not-given edge to that circuit. Tough, hungry players that compete like they’ve been overlooked their whole lives. Nike has pros. (They also have the best shoes) Adidas has the best watch for a basketball junkie. UAA has that chip-on-the-shoulder feel.

Ton of size from this @WolvesILL 16U front court who have also been making plenty of plays to have them have double digits early. 6’7 Kyler Payne is a 2028 to know plus they also have 6’8 Jake Tripp, 6’11 Cole Jansons, & 6’7 Daniel Salkauskas. @ny2lasports #NY2LASND

Couple of nice glimpses in this one from 2028 6”8 Jake Tripp for @WolvesILL. Rim protecting , running the court well. Showing some ability to stretch the floor, looking comfortable knocking down a three. Intriguing player. @palatinebball
