-First day back of practice after a little break, so it was a little light. Only drills, no scrimmage or anything like that.
-BMatt was also in attendance and will drop in with some more notes after mine.
-Today was Zep Jasper's first practice. Zep was a strong defender in drills and shot the ball well. Take that with a grain of salt, though, as it's just drills.
-Only player missing was Chris Moore, who I believe was traveling back from 4th of July stuff.
-Bryce Brown was in attendance and watching.
-Bruce started off practice congratulating guys like Zep who signed NIL deals (PSD Underwear for Zep). Also told them to be smart. Look into hiring an agent or finding someone who can be reliable and helpful in the process.
-A shooting drill with 3 players per hoop, 2 basketballs, two minutes to make as many 3s as possible with passes.
-Teams were: (1) Mike Whitmore, Zep, Wendell Green / (2) Walker, Stretch, Dylan / (3) Flanny, Preston Cook and a new walk-on named Carter / (4) Devan, KD, Lior / (5) Jaylin, Jabari, KT Harrell
-Team 1 won both times, with scores of 93 and 102. Team 2 had 66 both times. Team 3 had 90 and 87. Team 4 with 84 and 66. Team 5 with a 78 and 87.
-Strong emphasis on the "ball being a magnet" in defensive drills and always making sure you're playing around where the ball is.
***THAT'S ALL***
