One of the best ways to get information today is through social media. Unfortunately, it can be tough to search through all of the different information to find exactly what you are looking for and make sure that it is reliable. As a basketball player or coach, it is no different.
That is why we have decided to put together a list of some of the best social media basketball resources out there today (Twitter and Facebook). Hopefully, this will give you a great starting point to figuring out what you are looking for and what basketball coaching resources will best fit you.
And as much as these social media basketball resources can help you out, you can also consider growing your social media following and also being an expert resource that basketball coaches, players, and fans look up to as well.
