About This Play/Drill

Having had the privilege of coaching against Jakob Poeltl here in Austria on many occasions, it has been enjoyable following his career to this point at Utah.

Larry Krystkowiak is entering his 5th season at Utah and here is a post-up action run for Jakob Poeltl who has skyrocketed to the top of many NBA scouts lists for his ability to run the floor, soft hands, finishing ability, and shot blocking prowess.

The Utes do a very good job moving the ball and getting Poeltl touches where he can use his skills to put the ball in the basket.

Here is one of those sets.
