Basketball: Pass and Cut

Stop Travelling - Get your players to master the pivot. A simple technical session which focuses on your players pivoting, cutting and passing. No dribbling allowed!

Player 1 dribbles to the cone before passing to player 2, and then proceeds to continue their run to the next cone. They then make a cut to receive the pass and then turn and shoot.

Players work in groups of 3, with one ball per group.

The ball starts on the side with two players. The first player in the line passes to the opposite side and then follows their own pass. The receiving player catches the ball and then also passes and follows their own pass.

Drill continues. Players must move laterally from one end of the court to the other while performing this skill.

Player 1 will pass to player 2.

After the pass player 1 will cut to the bottom of the circle, stop and cut straight up above the free-throw line.

Once player 1 is above the free-throw line, player 2 will pass the ball where player 1 will catch and shoot.

Player 1 will become the next passer in the corner.

Setup the practice as shown.

Player 1 starts with the ball with player 2 making a flash (sprint) cut to the elbow. Player 3 sprints to the cones in front of the before maing an L cut.

Player 1 then passes the ball to player 2 who pivots and passes the ball to player 3 to shoot.
