Just curious about how different basketball players train to improve their game. What does your workout regimen look like? It'd be nice to share and get some great ideas!

exercising 6 days a week
Monday - light cardio, chest + triceps
Tuesday - full Cardio and basketball (shootaround and games with anyone at the court)
Wednesday - light cardio, biceps and back
Thursday - cardio and basketball
Friday - light cardio, abs, calves forearms and shoulders
Saturday - full cardio and basketball
Sunday - rest and shootaround
my schedule is like this because i am looking to cut a bit of fat and gain some muscle. once i reach my goal my schedule will change. all basketball players need some muscle to drive towards the basket and finish strong around the rim when well defended. if your a PG aim to get a body similar to D.Rose, Rondo and Westbrook

Wednesday - rest + optional agility/speed drills or yoga
Thursday - Skills Training
Thursday night - scrimaging
Friday - Weights full body compound lifts (similar to monday)
Saturday - scrimages/pickup bball
Sunday - league gamesEstimated 1Rep Max at ~204lbs
Squat 370lb (1.71xBW)

Back when I was in high school I would focus on my weaknesses. So if I felt like my handles weren't up to par with the rest of my abilities, I would work on my ball handling five days a week and I would also do some shooting drills and vertical jump training. Focus on improving on your weaknesses and you will continue to get better.
Do you want to improve your jumping ability and add inches to your vertical jump?

I play basketball but its not my main focus, what I do though is a day full body workout 3 days a week along with 2-3 plyometrics/speed sessions per week and 2 days of skill training on top of that
Bench: 255lbs (115kg)
Squat: 320lbs (145kg)
Deadlift: 430lbs (195kg)
