Detroit Pistons’ point guard Reggie Jackson has never been known for his ability to knock down perimeter shots.
But he also doesn’t have a bad shooting stroke which makes you wonder why he’s never been able to score consistently from down town.
After studying Jackson’s tape, Van Gundy and his staff found the solution– leg strength.
“They found I had a problem basically with my leg strength. My knees collapse, so I wasn’t getting power on my shot. They thought it was a pretty good stroke, so I wanted to work on my lower-body strength with my strength coach.
