JASON JORDAN’S WHAT I’M THINKING TODAY …
I’ve heard countless stories from high school basketball players already about losing their starting spots.
Players aren’t starting off having the season they envisioned and this is the time where the real work begins.
Basketball, and sports in general, is so mental.
Win the battle between your ears and you’ll be a productive starter in no time.
Time to work.
