Definitely better than the 1v1 videos. Shows you exactly how much work is out innto get better. Chellenging myself to shoot 1000-1500 shots a day feels great when you know you're about to unleash on isht talking guys who are totally unsuspecting of your habits behind closed doors
I love seeing Jabari workng on his game. Ngl I have been a lil iffy about him especially when it came to his free throws bc it always seemed like it was him getting fouled and not making at least 1 of his shots that could either make us or break us, but I do believe he has the potential to be an elite shooter. I'm hoping that this szn we will see his growth. Let's go Rockets 🚀🚀🚀 and let's go Jabari!
Jabari gotta keep working on it. He can get there. He has all the tools and he just gotta figure it out all out. Creating his own shot was an issue , hopefully this will help him out.
Not a lifetime but we start young. I have a mode where I hit every shot and it comes from hours and hours in the gym daily... Then putting it to work versus all different types of players/competition.
Jabari is more like Robert Horry just catch and shoot they got no handle or any other skillset. KD skillset required good ball handle the ability to go anywhere Jabari doesn’t have that
@@321thachfact is player like Robert Horry will be much more sought after new CBA contract whom are lower on a price tag but plays very important part of winning chip. Jabari will be 3rd best player in championship team at the best which is very good position to be in but most fans wants another KD out of him.
appreci8 yall sharing this. this is gr8 inspiration. also shows how gr8 these guys are because of the work they put in while people sit on the couch to watch them
The best part about these videos to me is getting the insights into why you’re doing these drills and what you should be thinking/looking for when translating it to a real game 🫡
Its like kds shot is already going up once hes finished the breakdown dribble .. which is very dangerous because he has the ability to cancel that out with another move lol
Fr kd a 7ft sg and jabari as of rn is more of a stretch big but if he keeps his foot on the gas and especially working out with a scoring maestro like kd we'll see more on ball creation
Jabari just turned 21 past months so he does have many years to get better but KD is one of the kind shooter that only handful will be compared to. Jabari is more of modern day stretch big who can switch 1-5 on a PnR so more of versatile defensive player who can shoot.
36% was respectable and he was stretching floor for the team last season. Reason for his lower percentage was due to no one other thanFVV demanded a defender outside the arc so both were heavily guarded but FVV had Sengun PnR to loose a defender while Jabari had no set plays for him. Once Cam and Reed becoming a rotation will open up other players to shoot much more open 3s
@@AkagiRedSun Nah I know all that, I watched a lot of rockets this year. I wasn't saying anything bad about him. I'm a fan of Jabari I just think he could've made a higher percentage even this year considering his percentage on wide open 3's was about 38%.
Well he was playing right next to the best of the best. I don’t think there aren’t many players who’s willing to do shoot around right after KD while filming.
These guys are Fckn amazing.. even if it’s shooting drills, half ass, summer time workouts, they make it look so easy no wonder they went 2 n 3 in the draft n make millions & millions..
Jabari Smith Jr looks to be a valuable and great role player that provides versatility on both ends. But he has potential to emerge into a superstar by developing and incorporating a few elements to his game that could unlock all of his great attributes
Watching Jabari working out with KD makes me so excited for the future of the Rockets. If he can bring even....60% (?) of what KD does...the league is in trouble, especially considering the rest of the talent the young Rockets have.
Those finesse moves work great when there’s no contact. Once people start playing harder n knocking off your spot in the playoffs, alot of those moves become less effective. Thats why guys with power moves like Jokic and Giannis still thrive in the playoffs.
We all know KD gonna knock ‘em down but Jabari was getting buckets too barely saw a miss from him looking for big things from him year 3 upgrades on the way
Jabari needs to work on his lower body strength. He got great release but his lower half seems to take shortcut of doing full motion which makes him inconsistent shooter when game goes on. Once he work on that he’s gonna be very good player
No knock on Jabari, but this is why it’s dangerous to compare every 6”9 shooter to KD. It’s more than the shot, his footwork and fluidity are what make Durant a guard with size and not just a shooting big. I feel Jaden Mcdaniels could benefit from a workout like this as well.
If Jabari picks up any of this he'll be lethal on the pullups at his size. I think KD is the wrong guy for him to learn from though. He'll fall in love with playing like him when he's even more of an inside thread who could get 4-5 easy baskets with moves around the rim a game, THEN take it outside. His problem is that he thinks he's a SF.
Love seeing Jabari work on his game with someone like KD to take that next step. My Rockets gonna be a force in the future for sure🚀🚀
Can't wait for KD to get traded to rockets soon
@@trill711 nuh uh kd to gsw plsss
@@RefRed_Kinglmao KD hats Golden State now 😂
They are preparing to play together
I want this kid to succeed,When he asked Tatum that question during the finals I became a fan.

KD is so silky smooth with that jumper. Just effortless. He's 6'11, and when he raises up, that shot is hard to block.
I like what I'm seeing from Jabari. I think the dude is going to be legit.
And KD is just ridiculous.
KD is just a pro shooter...he makes everything look easy
cuz he spent hours a day working hard for decades

KD jumpshot is too smooth😂❤
I can watch this all day
Kev is just a pure bucket, smooth as butter
I promise you it'll take you a lifetime to do what they do. How can they shoot like that, I can watch it all day.

Smith is a future superstar just a matter of time. I am waiting for him to understand he belongs and take the next step.

One of the smoothest forms ever, its too easy for KD
That’s why he’s like that
He’s the best at it and I don’t think there was anyone like him before. There were many shooters but size and the ways he release is true wonder
Thanks for posting ❤
My youngin Jabari Smith working with KD this off season. I c a break out season for Jabari 💯
Sir Trainer wow!!! You make them realize and flow their skills!!!
The best part about these videos to me is getting the insights into why you’re doing these drills and what you should be thinking/looking for when translating it to a real game 🫡
Idk how to explain it but KD looks like a big guard doing those moves but Smith looks like a mobile big doing them
Yup, Jabari is 80-90% of the way there, but KDs footwork and movement are somewhat sharper and cleaner. No wasted movement.
Its like kds shot is already going up once hes finished the breakdown dribble .. which is very dangerous because he has the ability to cancel that out with another move lol
Fr kd a 7ft sg and jabari as of rn is more of a stretch big but if he keeps his foot on the gas and especially working out with a scoring maestro like kd we'll see more on ball creation
Jabari is super skilled at his size, but KD is just at a different level of fluidity and balance from anyone else 6’10” and above.
Jabari just turned 21 past months so he does have many years to get better but KD is one of the kind shooter that only handful will be compared to. Jabari is more of modern day stretch big who can switch 1-5 on a PnR so more of versatile defensive player who can shoot.
Get that work in young brother 🤘🏾
Jabari going to prove he should have been drafted №1
KD making everything look so easy and effortless. Practically on autopilot. Whereas Jabari definitely thinking about his execution during his motion.
デュラントのフォームが最高にキレイですね！
パリ五輪も楽しみです♪
Love it!

Love these two players. Jabari is a young man and it's great to work out with KD. KD is a great great player.
One of my favorites cross over behind the back🫡
This not the first time for bari working out with kd I feel like kd see the potential of him 🫡
Jabari smith got it all 3 level scorer .. got some hops bro tall.. he can be another KD for sure.
KD so smooth Bari so raw
Facts
Jabari needs to be confident in his shot. that's what he needs to be more consistent. rooting for him.
Well he was playing right next to the best of the best. I don’t think there aren’t many players who’s willing to do shoot around right after KD while filming.
He needs to come to golden state💯🤤
KD always showing love to the young guys of the league!🙏🏽
so smooth
I fuck with the dude that’s training them you can tell he wants them to be very successful even though KD already been that
I'm sure gettin paid has a lot to do with it 😆
These guys are Fckn amazing.. even if it’s shooting drills, half ass, summer time workouts, they make it look so easy no wonder they went 2 n 3 in the draft n make millions & millions..
As a Rockets fan, I see Jabari totally different now. They should consider pushing him towards being a 3, and getting a big 4. Markanan comes to mind.
I like that, I think he needs more touches, only thing is they might have to give him up t get Markannen
@@simoncaldwell5795I agree. He needs plays ran 4 him.
Kd been doing this for 15 years on the daily obviously

Jabari putting in that work
KD been in the league since Jabari was 4 years old. Crazy
Let's Go 🤘🏿🔥🤘🏿
Who ever is the guy with the hat, he is a great shooting teacher.
KD and Curry are the best In the nba period with Tatum that should’ve been mvp right on their tails
kd and curry never miss in warmups/practice/shootarounds lmao. Jabari is underrated.
And we get to watch this for free!
A sign that KD is going to the rockets.
Those finesse moves work great when there’s no contact. Once people start playing harder n knocking off your spot in the playoffs, alot of those moves become less effective. Thats why guys with power moves like Jokic and Giannis still thrive in the playoffs.
It’s like big brother little brother
KD is a machine
This man KD different
KD: A+
Jabari: B+
KD is performing art.
Kd so smooth
He’s the Rockets key piece to win playoff games.
We all know KD gonna knock ‘em down but Jabari was getting buckets too barely saw a miss from him looking for big things from him year 3 upgrades on the way
Man KD and Steph was a cheat Code
they could defo play in the nba
Jesus Christ is God❤Psalm 23:4😊
Man KD is 6’13 (because DO NOT say he’s 7 feet, lol he doesn’t like that) but he handles and shoots like a guard. It’s insane.
Unreal. No defender or not NEVER missing is crazy…and KD making Jabari look regular sized
KD is just effortless 😅
Put that work in jabari
KD is the best and every Young player should want to workout with him.
Working out w his future teammate
lmao i was looking for this comment
Jabari needs to work on his lower body strength. He got great release but his lower half seems to take shortcut of doing full motion which makes him inconsistent shooter when game goes on. Once he work on that he’s gonna be very good player
Did KD Miss A Damn Shot 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ They Sure Showed Jabari Missing A Few
hope yall remember how elite kd is
KD "the pure hooper"
Now this proves it Jabari a legit 6'11 with shoes ain't no way KD ain't at least 7'0
No knock on Jabari, but this is why it’s dangerous to compare every 6”9 shooter to KD. It’s more than the shot, his footwork and fluidity are what make Durant a guard with size and not just a shooting big.
