Below you’ll find the edited notes of a conversation with PSB Co-Founder Logan Kosmalski and renowned Basketball Performance Coach turned Keynote Speaker Alan Stein. During his basketball training career Stein has worked for some of the game’s best, including Kevin Durant, LeBron James, Victor Oladipo, Steve Nash, Kyrie Irving and Kobe Bryant. 

Stein talks about his book Raise Your Game, self-awareness, and accepting feedback. Be sure to listen to the full podcast for some great insight on youth basketball. 

Alan Stein fell in love with the game at a young age. When he was young he got advice to find what it is that you love and find what it is that you’re pretty good at and then find where those two things intersect. That’s going to be your strength zone.

With the book and his career as a keynote speaker, he wanted to take what the game has taught him to businesses and fatherhood. He says what I’ve learned in basketball has absolutely helped me become a better father, has helped me run a business, has helped me become a better speaker. If you’re willing to give back to the game the game can be really good to you.
