About Lujens

With over a decade of playing experience, including starting at point guard as a varsity freshman and the versatility to play all five positions on the floor, Coach Lu transitioned into coaching with a belief that every player—regardless of starting skill level—can improve dramatically with the right instruction, repetition, and mindset. Coach Lu's training philosophy centers on three pillars: fundamentals first, individualized development, and building confidence alongside skill. Sessions blend proven skill-building progressions—ball-handling, shooting mechanics, footwork, and basketball IQ—with situational drills that prepare players for real game speed and decision-making. Currently working with players ranging from beginners to competitive youth athletes, Coach Lu emphasizes patience and clear communication, breaking down complex movements into simple, repeatable steps. Known for creating a positive, high-energy training environment, he believes that a player's love for the game is just as important as their technical growth. His own background as a starting point guard who could play any position gives him a unique feel for how each role sees the game, which shows up in how he teaches spacing, decision-making, and versatility to his students. Coach Lu is continuing to expand his coaching education through [certifications, mentorships, camps, or clinics] and is committed to growing alongside every athlete he trains.

Coach Daryl

I will always start my sessions the same way, with a ballhandling warmup routine. For more advanced players a will tweak the routine based on skill. We will then work on fundamental space creating into shots and finishing around the rim. I will be assessing while training to see where we need to focus on, what needs polishing, what can be added, etc.
