The Kids Are Playing Basketball Through a Pandemic

(www.wsj.com)

In the three weeks since March 20, the shot-tracking app HomeCourt recorded 5 times more shots and 25 times more dribbles than in the prior month, according to the company’s data. At this time last year, the app had logged a total of 10 million dribbles. Now it’s seeing more than 12 million dribbles per day.

I haven't had a chance to try one of the various basketball training apps like HomeCourt yet, but I've been fascinated by the demos I've seen. It's cool to see that enterprising young players are taking advantage of the social distancing situation to work on their individual skills in the meantime.
