The Kansas basketball team will be playing in the World University Games next month, and Perry Ellis is still working on his game.

Well, he’s working on his basketball skills in a swimming pool.

Ellis posted this video to his Instagram account, and it shows some nifty passing skills along with his brother Brae and Roman Young, who is with Sunrise Christian Academy in Wichita:
