NBA Pre-Draft Program

1. Speak with the agent to assess weaknesses/strengths by the pro-scouts. Speak with college strength coach for same feedback

2. Prepare the athlete for individual workouts with teams and the new format of the Combine.

3. Speak with skills coach on what type of conditioning is being done, so as to assure no overuse injuries and the best training possible.

4. We get athletes in the best possible shape of their life and the most healthy. Comments: Former Razorback Lucas Miller, who is preparing for the NFL: "I have never been healthier or performed better. AthletePlus is the best combination of speed/strength training, nutrition, physical therapy, and recovery."

5. Learn how to take instructions from a new coach in a different environment with every time in the NBA watching. How quick can you pick a drill or instruction from a new coach.
6. Prepare the athlete mentally and physically. He might have to work out for 7 different teams in 10 days, so endurance is important.

7. Prepare for the actual Pre-Draft Combine - Medical testing and Speed and agility testing:

3/4 courts sprint
Bench press,
Vertical jump
Pro lane agility drill

While these tests are not as important as the NFL Combine, we will have the player completely prepared.

Typical New Protocol at the Combine:

1. Warm-up and stretch (10-15 minutes)

2. No-step vertical jump

3. Maximum vertical jump

4. Pro-lane agility drill

5. 3/4-court sprint (baseline to opposite foul line)

6. Bench press 185 pounds for max repetitions

Combine has changed because players would not participated in the 5 on 5 events. In the past, 75 player were invited and the top 30 players did not attend. There are no 5 on 5 scrimmages. and now 7 hours of interviews on day 2.

Teams also enjoy the opportunity to get a 30 minute interview with 18 of the players of their choosing during the 2 day event. Each team submitted a list of 18 players they'd like to talk with, ranked by preference, and are then granted 30-minute blocks. Some teams bring head coaches, front office, or a psychologist for a personality assessment. Skills evaluated include left hand, right hand, cross-overs and behind the back. Shooting drills are next: could be timed jump shots from cones placed on the court or jump shots off simulated screens at elbow or NBA three pointers. Big guys will shoot a lot of jumpers and show post moves. There may be three on zero drills where they could show off their athletic skills by dunking.
