Xavier McDaniel Jr., son of the Seattle SuperSonics legend, has transitioned from his basketball career to focus on skill and strength training. A native of Columbia, South Carolina, Xavier first gained recognition as a high school champion at Hammond School, playing alongside the renowned Seventh Woods. He continued to excel in college basketball, spending two years at the University of Texas Rio Grande Valley under the esteemed coach Lew Hill, where he developed his skills for a professional career. Unfortunately, Xavier’s journey in professional basketball was impacted by a series of injuries, limiting him to two and a half full seasons across international leagues and the American TBL. Now, shifting his focus, he is completing his bachelor’s degree in psychology at Eastern Washington University, through Bellevue College. His mission is to combine his passion for sports and psychology to help individuals heal from trauma, focusing on the connection between mind, body, and spirit. As a coach, Xavier uses basketball as a tool not just for athletic development, but to guide others toward personal growth, whether that leads to a career in professional sports or simply a more balanced life off the court.
"We enjoy watching our son learn and grow over the course of each workout! He’s been wanting to take basketball more seriously and Coach X is great for his development and confidence!

My specialties include 1 on 1 moves to create space for shots or driving to the basket, as well as shooting form and defensive tactics. My highest level of play is AAU High School basketball.

"I made varsity my freshman year after training with him all summer, if you don’t want to take it from me-book a session with him and you’ll see progress in the first day.

Basketball educator blending disciplined skill development with spirited play; I bring several years of teaching experience and a proven ability to elevate fundamentals and court IQ. I am committed to tailored, respectful coaching that inspires growth and confidence.
"Our 10 year old son has been working with coach Eddie for three months and we have seen huge improvements in our son’s skill level and attitude towards practice. Eddie comes prepared to every session with well thought out drills and lessons. He has clearly thought through a variety of ways to teach each skill and given thought to progression over time. He is patient, kind, and hard working. Our son is excelling and has a more focused (but also fun) outlook on practice. He has been very open of our feedback and input on things we want to see in lessons and is a great collaborator. He has also been very flexible when we have needed to cancel or move a lesson over the summer when our schedules have been more fluid. We would highly recommend Eddie to anyone with kids looking to grow as basketball players.
Edward
Former D 1 recruiter, high school coach with 2 league titles and current WOA basketball official with over 1,500 varsity boys girls games officiated in King County/Metro including playoffs and post season. All sessions are geared to improve your skill set to ensure more fun playing. All drills will be multi-faceted, footwork focus and applicable to any style of play. Expect a lot of shots and shotmaking. I generally work with those competing for a high school varsity, JV or elite AAU spot.

Hey! My name is Jade Loville and I’m currently a professional basketball player. I’ve been fortunate enough to play in Spain, Greece, Mexico, Dubai, China and I plan on adding more beautiful places to the list. Basketball has been a passion of mine for the last 20 years and while I highly value my own development, I believe my purpose is to bring as many others as I can reach along with me. I pride myself on hard work and attention to detail in each and every aspect of my life. Let’s get after it and fuel our shared aspirations!

I’m Malcolm Albert, a Division III basketball player at Connecticut College and a lifelong student of the game. Growing up in Seattle, I developed my skills competing with Seattle Select AAU before completing a postgraduate season at Kimball Union Academy, where I had the opportunity to compete against high-level talent and continue growing as both a player and a leader. As a 6’4” shooting guard, my game is built around shooting, basketball IQ, and making winning plays. I pride myself on being a reliable catch-and-shoot player, creating scoring opportunities with smart movement, and constantly working to improve every part of my game. Basketball has taught me that success comes from consistency, discipline, and attention to detail. Those same principles are what I bring into every training session. Whether you’re just starting out or looking to take your game to the next level, my goal is to help you build confidence, sharpen your fundamentals, and develop skills that translate directly to game situations. I’m passionate about helping players improve because I know firsthand what it takes to grow through hard work and dedication.
