More About Coach Devon
I have trained athletes all around the world from pro all the way to beginners. I have played professional basketball in Australia, Mexico, Norway, Denmark, Spain, Italy, and Estonia. I am the CEO & Founder of Evolve Basketball App the number 1 Baseketball Training platform for IOS and Google Play. I am here to spread my knowledge of the game and get every player to the next level. We are currently in the process of building 2 facilities located in Chamblee and Tucker Georgia. The first session is on us as I want all athletes and parents to see the investment they are making first hand before moving forward.
I played college basketball at Claflin University for 2 years and Southern Polytech University in Marietta Georgia for 2. We won the SIAC championship and I helped take my school to its first ever NCAA tournament appearance with a 25-4 record and sweet sixteen appearance. At southern poly, we reached the sweet sixteen with a 27-5 record. I graduated in 2013 with a degree in New Media Arts. My college career averages are 14.5 PPG and 5.7 assists. I have enjoyed a great life in basketball and overseas and can help you achieve those dreams also.
Our training session are tailored towards the players needs. We don't make robots. Our goal is to make instinctive basketball players. We also go through strength and conditioning workouts. Being able to compete on the basketball court requires physical and mental strength to play a complete game. Conditioning is a big part of it as well.

Coach is great but location too far for us
Tony (CoachUp client)
When you know you just know. Great location, great program from great coaches! From the moment I stepped in I felt comfortable and relax, Coach consistently pushed me and motivated me for the entire training session non-stop. The communication was on point and so was the atmosphere, this is a go to Coach if you’re trying to elevate or open up your game. Looking forward to working with Coach Devon and the fam long term.

My son just had his first training session with Coach Devon and he walked away saying "Coach Devon is the best trainer I've had."

Coach Devon did an excellent job our first session. Each drill coach went through he gave feedback on what or how my son could improve. My son can’t wait for the next session. Thanks Coach!
Rocky (CoachUp client)
I connected to Coach Devon using coach up which is my first time. Coach Devon responded quickly and efficient. On my son's first visit with Coach Devon was impressive he took the time and was very patient with my son. He took videos to show my son what exactly he was doing wrong and corrected it. We just moved out to the Gwinnett area and I was looking for a personal trainer for my son and I must say I don't have to look no more I would recommend coach Devon to all my friends. And if anyone is in need for their son or daughter to get better in basketball I would recommend you give Coach Devon a chance.
