Players probably don't go work with him in the offseason because the dude is methodical
I forgot which podcast it was on but he outlined his offseason routine. He only takes like 2 weeks off after the season, then he starts his cardio workoits. He doesnt even pick up a basketball until around July. Most guys think of just putting up shots as their workout.
Plus you have to look at where he came from, Embiid and Simmons are not exactly the hardest workers.
And again, mentorship is not teaching a guy how to play, that's the coaches job. Mentoring is showing guys how to work and the type of work is required to play at your highest level possible and to never half arse any play at any time. It's also taking the time before and after practice to get up shots with guys when they're struggling like he did with NAW a few times earlier this season. Redick is probably one of the better mentors for a young player, if they have the want to
