Basketball is a sport that is constantly evolving, from a physical and athletic point of view (and not only), but it cannot ignore its fixed points: the so-called “fundamentals”, or the movements and techniques to master in order to take to the field at any level.
What is the correct position for the jump shot? How to position yourself for a cut out? How to give the right push and touch to the dribble? How to escape the pressure without losing the ball? What are the best one-on-one solutions for a winger? And for a long time?
From the height of his thirty years of experience in Italy and overseas, the Coach Dan Peterson in the book “L’ABC del basket” (ed. Rizzoli) answers these and many other questions in detail, applied to every possible game situation.
A mine of answers and advice not only for novice players, but also for veterans who wish to deepen or perfect the most varied aspects of their technical background. From handling the ball to clearing the marker, from dribbling to passing, from one-on-one to jump shooting: through anecdotes, illustrations, exercises and detailed explanations, Dan Peterson guides the reader to discover the essential fundamentals
for every good basketball player. With the contributions of twelve past and present basketball greats: Marco Belinelli, Gigi Datome, Dino Meneghin, Ettore Messina, Gianmarco Pozzecco, Mike D’Antoni, Vittorio Gallinari, Kyle Hines, Daniel Hackett, Marco Mordente, Luca Banchi and Marco Bonamico.
