The tag that I was too small and too slow just made me work that much harder. Besides, quickness is more important than flat-out speed. How often does a receiver run 40 yards straight down the field? Not very often. Lateral speed is what counts. How quickly can you get in and out of a cut? I can do that as well as anyone.

American Athlete

Holly Hunter

I've moved laterally, as opposed to vertically. I was never a superstar. I've always had to move between a couple of years of unemployment, where offers are not provocative enough to take, and seasons where I work nonstop for a year.

I'm a big proponent of playing all sports when you're growing up. I think they all help you from a competitiveness standpoint to a movement standpoint. Certainty with tennis, you get the lateral quickness more than anything.

American Basketball Player

A lot of the weaknesses we have are based on a lack of lateral movement, which can set you up for injury. When you exercise in multiple planes, you see improvements in balance, mobility, and function.

You look at the skills involved, especially with things like lateral movement or change of direction, and there's definitely a strong correlation between playing basketball and playing tight end.

American Football Player

I think the commercial world is a lateral step from features. Some people see it as a step down, but I've never understood that.

American Director

Isolated incidents have lateral, lasting implications.

Canadian Comedian

Anthony Davis' lateral movement is one of a kind.

When you pass laterally, you screen away.

Lateral describes a physical position at the side, not front or back.

Physical Position

When moving laterally, think of it as a straight line from side to side.

Directional Movement

Lateral thinking involves unusual approaches to problem-solving.

Creative Thinking

'Lateral' here implies a step away from normal methods.

Beyond Conventional

In sports, lateral passes are not forward but across the field.

Not Forward

A lateral can be a strategic decision in team sports, often in rugby or American football.

Strategic Move

Lateral lines are secondary pathways branching from a main system.

Infrastructure Branch

Often used in technical or engineering contexts to describe offshoots.

Technical Context

Lateral refers to side-to-side layout or motion, like wingspan on a plane.

Spatial Orientation

Use 'lateral' to emphasize movement that's parallel to the horizon.

Side Movement Focus
