Coach C. Collins and Coach MJ are ready to talk more AAU basketball, life and everything in between. In this episode, the coaches had to take the month of February 2021 off but now they are back and ready to talk AAU and updates on all the new changes happening in the grassroots landscape. The guest for the episode is YBA(youth basketball academy) coach Sarmento Gouvia who has great insight and presence in the AAU world and well respected in the community.

The coaches give there insight to the strange landscape of the NBA this year, talking about the all star weekend, the Blake Griffin trade, and the effects Covid-19 is having on the gambling community of the NBA. Coach MJ discusses his path of being an AAU coach and the take away so far. Yes, the coaches teams played and the result was crazy but the boys on his team hopefully learned from the experience and also the MBE(Matt Barnes Elite) incident. Weekends at Courtside Basketball have been crazy this past weekend because the Number 2 player in the country of the class 2023, Jalen Lewis, was there and college and media attention all over.

The coaches also talk about for the first time ever High School and AAU at the same time…what do kids do? In addition Coach C. Collins steps away from Whitney High school basketball program and talks about the circumstance around it. Of course the coaches do shot outs and much more so listen up!!
