DJ Sackmann

DJ Sackmann (born January 14, 1987) is an American basketball player and current athletic trainer, specializing in basketball skill development.

He has worked with players at all levels, including Evan Turner, Andre Barrett and Mario Chalmers, amongst others. He is the lead trainer under Micah Lancaster founder of I’m Possible Training, a training company based in Raleigh-Durham, North Carolina. "DJ Sackmann is quickly rising as one of the worlds best skills trainers" Micah Lancaster.

DJ is best known for his demonstrative and innovative approach to basketball training. He demands that he be more skilled than any player he trains—regardless of their performance level. His philosophy: To train at a high level, you must be able to understand game purpose, turn raw skill innovation into game like action, motivate with purpose, and demonstrate at the highest level. DJ is a true student of the game and impresses players—whether beginner or pro—with his continued advancements in the basketball-training world.

College Career A four-year starter at the University of New Haven, DJ later took advantage of his playing years by studying player development strategies, as well as team development strategies. As a player, he began helping the coaching staff with opposing player personal and opposing team-scouting reports. DJ then traveled to Germany for a brief professional playing career before returning to the States and being hired as an AAU director and lead trainer in North Jersey.

Professional Career DJ joined Micah Lancaster's I'm Possible Training in 2012. The program is a year-round training system with training centers across the United States. I'm Possible Training also provides basketballs services including camps, training academies, clinics, private training, and motivational speaking.

DJ Sackmann caught the attention of the international iconic brand adidas - the brand name is appropriately uncapitalized, with a lower case "a".

The German multinational corporation which consists of the Reebok and TaylorMade has put together a team of five of the world's best basketball trainers to represent adidas hoops. They showed them off at their dope #LVL3 event space at the Planet Hollywood Resort and Casino in July 2016

Since starting his professional career with I'm Possible, DJ has expanded his brand into multiple avenues:

The Hoop School

The Hoop School North Jersey’s and Long Island's premier basketball specific training program. Training is open to Boys and Girls Grades K - 8th. The Hoop School gives players access to year-round training from some of the most well known trainers in the country where they will be brought through I'm Possible Training's world-renowned innovative basketball training curriculum.

Handle Development

Know for his superior ball handling skills DJ launched an online training program players of any level can benefit from. When launched in August 2016 the program called, Handle Development was only one of a handful of it's kind in existence.

Accelerate Israel

DJ is partners in a complete basketball player program for Israelis called Accelerate Israel. Each player will get the unique experience of receiving a full year long strength and conditioning program, in-depth film breakdown and analysis, two week long camps in America with competition against some of America’s top players, with personal and individual attention every month. As far as we know there is simply no basketball training curriculum that can compare with the Accelerate Program.
