The offensive player will come from the opposite side of the lane to post up on the block on the ball side of the court.
To get around the defensive player the offensive player will lift their arm over and step around the defensive player.
Once the offensive player is in front they will have a very wide stance, showing a hand target where they want to receive the basketball.
This drill is to work on getting around a defender to establish post position on the block.
Talent wins games, but chemistry wins championships. Building a positive team culture, establishing shared values, and developing trust creates teams that exceed the sum of their parts.
Getting to the rim is only half the battle. Converting against shot blockers and help defenders requires a toolkit of creative finishes. The best scorers have multiple ways to score at the basket.
Traditional positions are becoming obsolete. Modern basketball rewards versatile players who can handle, pass, shoot, and defend across multiple positions. Developing these skills creates valuable, adaptable players.
