2 players work with 1 basketball. Players must catch and shoot on the move.
Once a player has shot they should catch their own rebound and pass to the other players.
Once the player has passed the ball, they should make a run/cut and then get ready to shoot the ball.

Players should shoot almost immediately after receiving the ball. This is a high intensity drill.
Challenge players to keep count during a 1 minute period:
The ball screen produces almost half of all professional offensive possessions, yet most teams still teach it as a memorised play. The modern approach trains the read - giving players a framework to decide based on what the defence does, not what the coach called.
The closeout is the most repeated defensive action in modern basketball. With fouls per game climbing in the 2025-26 season, coaches must teach defenders to contest the three without surrendering the drive or putting shooters on the line.
The 2-3 zone defence remains one of the most effective defensive systems in basketball when coached and executed properly. This guide covers the fundamentals of running a 2-3 zone, including player roles, rotations, and when to deploy it for maximum impact.
