EP 6: How Playing Soccer Helps Your Basketball Game


There are 10 athletes on on basketball court and only one basketball with players required to move off the ball at all times. Setting screens, moving around defenders, looking for open lanes and fighting to get space are all staples of the game.

All of these movements made in basketball have a direct correlation to movements made in the game of soccer.

On this episode, Brandon Busbee, National Soccer Manager for Life Time, enters the UH studio to chat about the parallels between the game of soccer and basketball and how playing both can help your game on the hardcourt and the pitch.
