Combos Court

Who’s REALLY the most skillful NBA player ever? NBA Skills Coach Drew Hanlen joins Combo to break it all down. Kyrie Irving. Michael Jordan. Stephen Curry. Kevin Durant. Who truly has the deepest bag and the most complete skill set? But before the skill debate, Combo and Drew dive into one of the most fascinating experiments of the NBA season — the Point Cooper experiment in Dallas. Drew explains why giving an 18-year-old the ball early is both a blessing and a challenge, what the Mavs were trying to unlock, how Cooper handled the pressure, and why his biggest growth area (ISO scoring) takes time for every young star — even KD and Steph. This episode features incredibly detailed basketball talk with rare insight into reading the game, confidence, development, shot diet, pace, footwork, and league-wide trends. Drew also gives honest behind-the-scenes perspective from working with elite players at the highest level. What You’ll Hear in This Episode • The Point Cooper experiment — what worked, what didn’t, a
