I remember a Jason Kidd quote about how he got to the NBA. Late nights at the gym practicing while his friends went out. I don't know if thats your goal, but with that mentality you could definitely improve if you really keep at it. Its not the amount of hours you put into it, it's what you put into the hours.How can I improve tremendously in basketball?

ball handling, two balls in each hand and dribble them simutaneously and one by one and go in circles both ways, shooting practice form shooting with your guiding arm behind your back and just shoot with one arm, defense do suicides sideways like on defense, cardio run a lot, rebouding practice to box out passing, pass to a wall
practice,practice,practice. Become a gym rat and put in the hard work. It always pays off.
