Most basketball players are standing in the wrong line.

AAU basketball provides competition, teamwork and exposure—but playing more games doesn’t automatically develop better players.

According to current NCAA estimates:

🏀 Only 3.6% of boys who play high-school basketball reach an NCAA roster.

🏀 Only 1.1% reach NCAA Division I.

🏀 For girls, approximately 4.7% reach an NCAA roster and only 1.4% reach Division I.

USA Basketball’s foundational development model recommends approximately a 70:30 training-to-competition ratio.

Games reveal a player’s weaknesses.
Skill training helps correct them.

Before paying for another tournament, ask:

Does my player need more games—or more development?

The best approach includes both. But competition should never replace learning proper shooting mechanics, ball handling, footwork, decision-making and athletic development.

Off-season and summer basketball should prioritize foundational skill development over endless weekend tournaments. While games offer a chance to compete, heavy tournament schedules often force young players to mask flaws rather than fix them. Basketball training/skill development builds better shooting, ball-handling, and court awareness, ensuring long-term success. This post is not directed towards regular season high school, or middle school basketball.

Being a point guard is about much more than dribbling the basketball.

A great point guard must understand the game, read the defense, control the tempo, communicate and create opportunities for teammates. Those skills don’t develop by simply playing more games—they are built through focused training, repetition and coaching.

At Will Advance Basketball Training, we don’t just teach players what to do. We help them understand why and when to do it.
