NBA Prospect 'Greenlights' with Phil Beckner | Podcast Excerpt

What are ‘Prospect Greenlights’?
These are the key traits—both on and off the court—that significantly elevate a player's potential for long-term success. NBA Player Development Coach Phil Beckner breaks them down into two categories: skillset and intangibles.

Skillset

  • Adequate handle, footwork, and passing ability that have been taught and trained the right way. Precise and intentional.

  • Shoot the basketball — shooting is the separator. Make and take 3’s

  • Conditioned to guard, sit in a stance, run the floor — operate with speed and force

Intangibles

  • Confidence — the type that’s earned and can’t fake

  • Willingness to FIGHT, compete, and work outside your comfort zone — do the extra!

  • The ability to sustain and follow through
