How can I jump from frshman ball to sophmore ball?

I am going to be playing Freshman b ball this year, and need a lil help.

I am 5'10, 140

Run the 40 in 5.5 seconds

22 inch vert, but I jump quick, get up there faster than others (i know it sucks, working on it)

6 foot 2 inch wingspan

7 for 10 free throw shooter

50 percent elbow shooter

I blocked 2 shots per game

halfway decent dribbles, good enough never to get ball stolen, but not enough to be fancy with it

I drive to the basket often, and make about half my contested lay-ups.

(stats from summer league)

What aspects shud I work on to dominate next year? My goal is to make sophmore this year and varsity next year.

And how do I work on my vert, I've been doing squats, lunges, deadlifts and calf raises and jump roaping. Can someone tell me exactly wut plyometrics r?

And how can I improve my shooting, I mean you can always relly on driving, but if they cut that off I have to shoot.

Also what position would I play? I was thinking shooting guard, cuz I can take smaller guards in the post. What do you think?

Thanks alot.

    Work on your court vision and learn to be aware of every single thing going on inside of the court. Learn how to fake pass / shoot. You should also learn how to read players when your in a game so you know what kind of a player she would be (you aquire that from pick up games)

    Working on low post dishing the ball back outside of the key. Or just making solid passes that will turn into assists.

    Work on your handles drible up and down the court with your left hand for five minutes and right hand.

    Dont worry so much about working out so much. Just dont be a push over.

    To improve your shooting just do what kobe dose. Take 200-500 shots a day and you will see improvement in form and in the games.

    Your going to play a small forward, or shooting gaurd. You should let the coach know where you want to be on the court so you can feel more comfortable and control the game.

    Hope this helps.

  • You don't know how fortunate you are to have long *** arms and some hops,y should be able to be in the sophmore team. We are the same height and you got some long *** arms. I would dominate with arms like that. what you should do is sit down and rest,it seems like you got a natural phsycal gift
