Can Roy Hibbert kick it? Yes he can. Can Roy Hibbert kick it? Yes he can — at least now.
A known mixed-martial arts aficionado, Hibbert has been using such non-basketball training methods for the past few years to improve his strength, agility, balance, and body control. And now he has brought jiu jitsu into the mix, working out at Gracie Jui-Jitsu Academy in Los Angeles.
On of Hibbert’s biggest weaknesses on the court is his inability to consistently get position down low while trying to get into good position to score. By training like this, he will presumably improve his understanding of how to gain leverage against opponents.
