Progress Awaits with JZhoops Player Development
Jordan Zimmerman
Coaching & Training Philosophy
I believe that player development goes beyond just skill work—it's about building complete athletes who excel both physically and mentally. My approach focuses on intentional skill development, high-level decision-making, and adaptability to prepare players for real-game situations.
Having worked with athletes at the NBA, G-League, college, and high school levels, I emphasize game-specific training, ensuring that every drill translates directly to competition. My philosophy is rooted in film study, detailed breakdowns, and individualized plans tailored to each player’s strengths, weaknesses, and long-term goals.
Mental preparation is just as important as physical training. I incorporate meditation, visualization, and mindfulness techniques to help players develop focus, confidence, and emotional control. Learning to visualize success, stay present, and embrace pressure allows athletes to perform at their peak when it matters most.
Beyond the court, I prioritize mental toughness, accountability, and leadership—qualities that separate good players from great ones. My goal is not just to improve skills but to develop players who understand the game at an elite level and can impact winning at any stage of their careers.
