Drey Ricks | Basketball Performance & Important Factor of Mindset
Drey Ricks knows when the buzzer rings and the game is on, it’s the mindset that dictates the game. Basketball’s particular hybrid battle strategy and mindset that makes a player’s performance.

“There are two crucial parts to take into consideration, first is one’s focus, concentration and mindset. Under duress in a game of basketball throughout a fierce competition over the course of the quarters. If a player can’t handle the strain, the performance will degrade over the course of the game.”, Drey Ricks.
Second, is the physical game. Physical toughness is having the edge that allows you to reach peak performance and efficiency that are placed on you during training, practice, or competition.
Drey Ricks identifies taking both these factors into account proves one vital point. Players’ mindset shapes performance. A player who goes into the game with anything less than complete commitment is a player who will not perform his best and who has already lost the mental game of basketball.
