  1. That is quite a work out. At a minimum, you should be fairly fit for try outs. Yet just doing drills is not the only answer. Why are you only doing things alone? You need to also compete with and against others. You need to integrate working on the flow of the game, passing to others, moving without the ball, rebounding in traffic... all things that are almost impossible to simulate in anything other than games or drills with others. You sound ambitious, so good luck, but, learn to compete.
