Here’s Philadelphia 76ers rookie Jared McCain on making the right reads as a playmaker (averaging 2.3 APG through eleven games).
(via Philadelphia 76ers):
“Instead of reading my defender, I’m reading the backside defender. Or not even reading the first help side, I’m reading the second on the backside and seeing if the big is pulling over seeing if the help is crashing down to the baseline person or is he gonna lift up to the wing and I can hit the wing when I’m driving baseline. So, it’s just certain things that are slowing down. Whenever I jump, I can even make a decision in the air, but that’s gonna come with time. Just reading defenses, I think it’s just gonna come with time watching film on it.”
