A typical Mavericks practice ends with each player shooting free throws and jump shots before heading up, one-by-one, to the locker room. This season, however, there’s an extra step. Every player spends time with Johnny Stephene in an effort to improve their ball-handling. That might seem like an odd thing for professional basketball players to work on, but everyone in the Mavs organization would tell you otherwise. What’s more unique than an NBA team hiring a ball-handling coach through training camp is how Stephene, also known as “Johnny Dribbles,” came to be involved with the club, and only in this era would it be possible. Stephene’ s Instagram account, dribble2much, is incredibly popular — the coach has more than 980,000 followers and a successful business. What started with videos of Stephene showing off some impressive moves soon turned into one-on-one sessions with NBA players like Kevin Durant, DeMar DeRozan, and Nate Robinson, and a business called Handlelife. Soon, Mavs player development coach Mike Procopio took notice and, working with owner Mark Cuban, recruited Stephene to work with the rookies shortly after the NBA Draft. After a few days’ work, head coach Rick Carlisle and the Mavs invited him back to work with the team throughout training camp. The result: a mutually beneficial partnership that has led to noted improvement up and down the roster. ------------------------------------- 大意：Johnny stephene是非常有名的運球教練在IG追蹤有98萬人，許多明星級球員都會在休賽期間找他訓練運球的技巧，包刮雷霆的KD 暴龍的DZ 太陽的布雷獸賽爾提克小湯，小弟有追蹤他的IG之前就覺得他怎麼好像都穿小牛的訓練衣，今天看消息才知道他加入了小牛擔任運球教練一職。不得不說這對小牛是件非常好的事情阿！！ -- Luck for losers.. -- ※ 發信站: 批踢踢實業坊(ptt.cc), 來自: 114.41.109.105 ※ 文章網址: https://www.ptt.cc/bbs/Mavericks/M.1444370392.A.261.html
