18 y/o guard moving to Canada — what should I focus on to reach a high level?
I'm 18, 6'3" with a 6'6" wingspan and ~35" vertical. I've been playing since 14 and am moving to Canada soon for university.
I want to take basketball seriously alongside my degree and eventually compete at the highest level I'm capable of.
What should I prioritize over the next 1–2 years to become a genuinely high-level guard? I'm particularly interested in improving my:
- Shooting
- Ball handling/creation
- Finishing
- Defense
- Athleticism
- Overall basketball IQ
I'm looking for honest advice on what a player in my position should focus on and what mistakes I should avoid.
