Because playing the sport at such a high level remains an opportunity afforded to few, Nolen now focuses his time on refining the skills of young basketball players.
“I think a lot of kids are losing sight of the basic fundamentals at an early age because there’s so much emphasis on being the ‘highlight reel’ guy,” Nolen said.
After finishing his career at Minnesota and concluding stints in the NBA Development League and in Europe, Nolen started up his own skills training company over the summer called Al Nolen Elite Basketball Skills Training.
“I wanted to help out kids with their basketball skills,” Nolen said. “I know as a young kid I was helped out a lot by a lot of people.”
