This episode of The Coach Approach, I share the three core character traits I looks for when recruiting the "right type of "basketball athlete for my teams.

My preference is for athletes who work hard, are coachable and have a growth mindset.

I break down why I feel these aspects or characteristics are most important.

I also examine the growth mindset, performance mindset and explain the concept of a performance gap.

As a bonus, towards the end of the episode I tell how you can grab a copy of my athlete evaluation form I use to identify players for my teams and academy.
