About this listen
Tim DiFrancesco shares what he learned working with Kobe Bryant and NBA players—and how those lessons translate to youth basketball. The conversation focuses on attention and presence (“be where your feet are”), building habits in the other 23 hours of the day, and why inviting failure is essential for growth. The episode also covers youth development realities (most won’t go pro), the role of coaches as teachers, screen-time as a performance dampener, and practical strength & conditioning principles by age group—especially how to introduce resistance training safely and progressively.
If this conversation helped you, tap follow, share it with a teammate or parent, and leave a quick review so more players and coaches can find it.
