Basketball with Christian Nichols

I’m a freelance basketball coach with years of playing experience and a lifelong love for the game. I've competed at a high level and had the opportunity to play against some of the best talent out there, sharpening my skills and basketball IQ through real game experience. My passion for the sport runs deep — whether I’m on the court or watching the game, I’m constantly learning. I study players like LeBron James for leadership and vision, Shai Gilgeous-Alexander for creativity and pace, Luka Dončić for control and poise, Austin Reaves for hustle and IQ, and Payton Pritchard for energy and toughness. My approach to coaching is individualized and intentional. We’ll break down your strengths and weaknesses and create a plan that improves both — not just on the surface, but with a long-term mindset. From footwork and shooting mechanics to court awareness and confidence, I’ll meet you where you’re at and push you to reach your potential. Let’s build your game the right way — with purpose, passion, and real results.
