(note to new & old visitors: I recently switched hosts, so even though the site is viewable and functional, there’s a lot of work I’m doing behind the scenes. There will be empty pages and bad links in some spots; I’m aware and getting to them as fast as my fingers can do so. Thanks! Now onto the show…)

“Your best work is the expression of yourself. You may not be the best at it, but when you do it, you are the only expert in it.”
-Frank Gehry, The Wisdom BookThis is Dre Baldwin. Or rather, I am Dre Baldwin. Welcome, to those of you that are new, and good to see you again, for those who are familiar with me in any way, shape or form prior to arriving here. There are several titles that can be applied to my existence, and I’ll allow you to choose for yourself which one will best suit your perception of the man before you. Use any and all areas of this site to help you with your decision.
As for my personal perception, I’m a professional basketball player (who fills his free time with a few other activities) with a goal of an NBA career. That goal drives my actions, occupies my mind and is the most important thing in my life.
I have heard a lot of people say that it’s good to “follow your dreams” while you’re young and have the opportunity to do so. I agree with that premise in priciple, but not in the way it’s expressed. I am particular about the ‘way’ and the ‘what’ of the words that come out of my mouth, and I am against use of a few terms, specifically when it comes to my life:
- Try
- Wish
- Can’t
- Dream
- Impossible
Let’s be clear: I don’t have a “dream” of making it to the highest level of my profession; it is more accurately described as a “goal.” The same difference as between a “wish” and a “want.” I work hard at what I do and I won’t stop until my body and mind absolutely cannot go any further.
What you can expect from DreAllDay.com… 1) A lot of basketball talk, as this is my main focus. 2) Pointed social commentary on everyday (and not-so-everyday) life happenings via my blog. 3) Some photo updates when I take the time to post new images, as I take a lot- of me and everything else. 4) A very accesable main character (Me), via my various social networking profiles, email, or the lucky chance you run into me in the flesh. Don’t be shy to speak!
As for this web site itself, I have designed/ am designing/ am running this website myself, and I’m still working on it constantly, so expect many changes in the layout. I’m learning the ins & outs of web design as I go along, and I am not yet able to trust anyone else with creating content on this site aside from myself. So Thank You for coming, enjoy, stay tuned!

Hey, I am a 9th grader heading toward the summer. I really want to improve my ball handle to perhap the level of your or even better. I also want to become a better passer. But I don’t have a basketball and I dont know where to start. Is there some drills r exercise course i can do without a basketball and with a basketball? I really want to take my game to a higher level like u r more, even if it is too much to ask during the summer.
Another question. Since im a ninth grader, how can i improve my shooting range? What can i do to acquire a quick shooting touch

some are, but not everybody.
if you want to get better at basketball, you will need to obtain a basketball. that’s step one.

Dre Baldwin i saw ur video when u where at the D-league Predraft camp. is it challanging and how many people make it,what do they look for im in grade 9 and i made my ball team last season
the Camp was great. if ur in 9th grade, look to the NBA- not the DLeague!
thanks a lot, stay tuned!
what up. ive heard that that is a great camp! i never did any of the camp/AAU stuff in my HS years but you should play withi urself, dont try to do anything that u dont normally do. play hard and show a good positive attitude, you are being watched!
Thanks! But I was asking more on your experience on the d league camp> Everyone is trying to shine, how did you find time to show your skills. I have an idea already to wokro extra hard on the defensive end, its the offense im worried about.

Hey man I came across your videos on youtube and have been following your updates and progress. You’re doing big things and have inspired me to continue my with my basketball goals. I have a try out with the Arkansas Warriors, a semi pro team in the UBL I believe, in January. I had given up my goals and started to focus on life after basketball until I saw your videos. I just wanted to say thanks and good luck with your journey. Remember that the journey there is the best part so enjoy every day!
