I was wondering if any of you guys have any pre-game rituals. Whether you play varsity for your high school, JUCO, 6th-8th grade ball, or simply pick-up games, what is your pre-game ritual?
This is going to be a bit graphic but I take a sh!t before I go out and play. I feel lighter on my feet. Not sure if that’s exactly a ritual, but I do it before every time I play so I would suppose.
What about you guys?

I always listened to JaRule’s remake of Tupac’s song Pain. For some reason just got me going.
And I played on a team with a dude who’s ritual was to sh!t before everygame too lol.

Hahaha pre-game dumps are a must!
My pre-game ritual starts in the morning I always try to get a couple hundred shots up early, mine are pretty basic just that and listen to music right before the game always gets my head straight.

Mine Begins after practice the day before. I always leave the court with a 25 foot (or deeper) swish. I take the pregame dumps too, and I vibe to Travis Porter or Roscoe Dash cause it seems like those songs always get me hype.

hamstring, back, calves, groin, shoulder, and arms before playing. Doing so reduces the risk of injury though there is no guarantee you won’t get hurt.

I would eat a Double Cheese Burger during the JV game, after shoot around at the varsity girls half time I would eat a purple bag (tropical?) of skittles..and would listen to Pastor Troy and Crime Mob before every game. I highly recommend PT and Crime Mob, great pre-game music.

yeah… the pre-game deuce is a must. Makes me feel lighter too.Before the game I drink a 20 oz cup of coffee (I like it like I like my women- black and bitter) instead of Gatorade or water. During the game I move on to H2O.

I try to imagine everything I’m going to do on the court before I do it.
I also tend to pretend I’m shooting a ball in my house, at the same time practice my form.
It’s weird I know, but it helps out my game a lot.

Try seeing how epic your dumps become when you got that blasted. "How can number 2 be number 1? Because I’m the shiiiiiiitt"
