Chris Matthews: the Shooting Coach to the Stars
Via The Hustle
Summary
Chris Matthews, known by his training brand "Lethal Shooter," carved out a career as one of professional basketball's most sought-after shooting coaches after a journeyman playing career through college programs and international leagues. During his final college season at St. Bonaventure, he made 101 three-pointers, setting a school record.
After a collapsed lung ended his playing days, Matthews transitioned to coaching in 2016 and quickly built a client list including Anthony Davis, Jaylen Brown, and Domantas Sabonis. He has amassed nearly three million social media followers and earned a Jordan Brand player-exclusive shoe — rare recognition for a trainer, illustrating how elite specialized skill can open doors that a conventional playing career never could.
