We’ve entered the golden age of point guards who can do it all. Score, dish and serve.
I know many come to mind. Players like Curry, Westbrook, Irving, Lillard and Paul to name a few have taken the league by storm. And there's no surprise that every offense goes through the facilitator. Developing Guards is vital to a teams success, they orchestrate the offense as well as facilitate.
Among all the positions on a basketball court, the point guard has the most specialized duties. The point guard must understand the game plan. It is paramount that they create scoring chances for themselves and others, and that they keep their own tempo.
Life is hard for point guards in today's basketball, it's not enough to be a steady, reliable, play it safe distributor. It's an ever changing role that one must adapt to quickly in order to be effective. Failure to do so can result in poor performances, teams coming up short, not making the playoffs, or worse, getting benched or even dropped from the team.

The ability to focus on others, direct the game plan. Ball handling skills are essential when developing a guard. They must value each and every possession and take care of the ball. The ability to make teammates better by facilitating. A clear understanding of the situation and being able to direct the fast break are just some of the attributes to an elite player.
