Why it works
Fourth-quarter shots come with dead legs. The nugget: conditioning-embedded shooting trains the legs to hold form when gassed — the single biggest factor in clutch in-game shooting. A kid who can shoot 50% after four sprints hits the shots that decide games; one who only shoots fresh falls apart in the fourth. Fatigue-shooting is the skill that turns a good shooter into a clutch one.
