Andre Drummond Quotes

I've always been able to shoot the ball, so it's just about continuing to work on your shot and shoot the ball. That's the main thing. Got to get those shots up.

I had to make 500 shots every day, and when my mom wasn't looking, I'd get up closer to the basket and do lay-ups and count them, and she'd be at the back window at the kitchen and knock. Then I'd have to go back and shoot from longer.

I'm going to continue to work on my shot every single day, and just try to improve that.

When it comes to basketball you always want to put the ball in the hole. You want to get as consistent and get that muscle memory right and be consistent.

You can never perfect nothing, really, so I need to tighten up my ballhandling, my shooting.

I never casually shoot shots, ever. I shoot the same way every time. I shoot the same shots that I'd shoot during the game.

If you have an open shot, and you're a shooter, and you've put hours and hours on the practice court shooting the ball, you shoot the ball in the game. It's just that simple.

I think my jump shot could get a lot, lot better. I could become a really big threat out there.

If you want to be a good shooter, you've got to shoot.

If I improve on the jump shot then I will be hard to guard.

My form is improved and I'm just continuing to improve. I want to come back as a shooter. A knockdown shooter.

How you practice in nets matters a lot.

I tell people that stand-up's like golf: you gotta do it every day to get it down - or at least three times a week to get it down.

My best move is probably my pull up jump shot.

A baseball swing is a very finely tuned instrument. It is repetition, and more repetition, then a little more after that.

I learned to appreciate repetition. That's why I can dance. It's how I learned to act. I have a high tolerance for repetition.

Consistency is key in any sport and it's no different here.

You have to have sound mechanics to repeat the same delivery each time. That's the hard part. Since I don't bowl all the time I'm not consistent with my mechanics.

What I would do after training is stay half an hour and kick the ball against a wall with my weaker foot over and over again to make sure it gets stronger. And young players should remember that everything comes from the base of hard work, so never give up.

I'm understanding how to use my swing and working in the cage every day to repeat what I'm doing. Just not trying to do too much.

Games are often won or lost on the free-throw line. This isn't about slick moves or great skills. It's about practice, muscle memory, and being able to keep a cool head under pressure.

Finishing is different to shooting. If you work at in in training sessions then you will just do it naturally during the game.

I spend countless hours each and every day after practice doing form shooting. You know, coming in on off days to shoot.

That is what shooting is. There is no secret sauce, man. You've got to find mechanics that you can make the same every time, and you've got to do it over and over again, and you can't just shoot for rhythm. You've got to understand what you are doing. You have to focus on those details every day.

It's always great to get more reps.
