Chance's of making it to the NBA?

Question

I am 5'10", 130 lbs. Freshman in highschool good all-around shooter great passing, good handles high hops. I strength train every day. I also practice various basketball drills such as ballhandling, and shooting. My personal trainer is a Ohio All-American. I play every day at the local park with 17-30 yr olds averaging 7points to a game of 15. (5on5). I have a 3.7 GPA.

Answer 1

your doin good. but i would hit da wieght room cauz ur taller then me and i wiegh more than u. but other than dat u have a good posssibility

Answer 2

You said your trainer is an Ohio All-American. Why don't you ask him instead? He should know more than anybody. He's the one who trained you.

You can't just give us these infos and expect us to make an accurate judgement right?

Good shooter? Like Stojakovic-good? or good for average people?

Great Passing? Like Jason Kidd-great? or what?

Plus those 17-30 years olds you play with are just ordinary people. Not some professionals. It's a big difference. Some guys are playground legends and still don't make it to the NBA.

Answer 3

yeah it is very very slim but there is still a possibility if u try hard

Answer 4

You need to gain some weight. You shouldn't be that skinny if you want to play basketball otherwise you'll get killed on the court.

Answer 5

So let me get this straight, you expect to grow 7 inches and your already a Freshman!  Wow!

IF you indeed become 6'5", then that would put you at the #2 slot or SG.  That's the most talented position in basketball.  You will have a tough time.  You have got to bust your tail now if you want it to happen.

Why don't you take it one step at a time and try to make the HS team first.  

Like someone else mentioned what does "good all-around shooter" mean?  You need to be making 75-80 out of 100 from 15'-20' out to be a "good" shooter.  In my opinion that's a "good" shooter.  Everyone has a different opinion of what "good" is.  So if your doing that and have good form then keep it up, otherwise bust your tail!

And your 30ppg are they in organized competition or in pickup games?  There's a big difference.

Answer 6

Slim to none.  There are over 6 billion people in the world.  The NBA only has 30 teams.  There are a lot of very good players who still aren't good enough to be in the NBA.

Answer 7

u can do anything u want to if u work hard enough

Answer 8

it is very hard. you should be in the high school team and try to get recruited by a D1 school then it gets harder there. the only disadvantage may be ur 5'10 cause the nba point guards are like 6'2 average. cause of your height you should work on you vertical jump. chances are slim but never stop trying and good luck
