About Me:
Adam Lonon is the founder/owner of Adam Lonon Basketball and a professional basketball skill development trainer. He is also certified as a sports conditioning specialist helping to develop athletes through the implementation of sports-specific programs.

His success at the Steward School helped secure a full-scholarship to the Virginia Military Institute in Lexington, VA.
Upon arriving at VMI, Adam faced many obstacles such as a fractured toe during his freshman season and a torn hamstring that inhibited him from playing the first 3 months of his junior season. Fighting through adversity, Adam helped lead VMI's team to a combined total of 62 wins over four years including two Big South Championship appearances in 2007 and 2009 starting over . Co-captaining the 2009-2010 Men's squad, Adam started 81 games in his collegiate career.
Playing alongside players such as Reggie Williams (NBA, Golden State Warriors), Travis Holmes (Former D-League/Pro Player), Chavis Holmes (Pro Player, Mexico), Matt Murrer (Former Pro Player/Portugal) and Carl Josey (Pro Player/Iceland), he understood and appreciated the work ethic needed to take one's game to the next level.
