HomeCourt drills without a hoop during COVID
Unable to play much during COVID, a player found HomeCourt had drills you can do with or without a hoop, tracked by the phone camera.
What they did
They downloaded HomeCourt because COVID kept them from playing much.
How it went
They found plenty of drills you can do with or without a hoop, tracked automatically by the camera, with ratings that gave it a video-game feel.
Worth knowing
If you cannot get to a court, camera-tracked drills still let you get reps in at home.
Try it yourself
