Working in pairs one players stands under the basket with the other player on the half way line.
The player on the half way line runs towards the key to receive the ball from the other player. Once they receive the ball they should use the jump stop and then put the ball in the triple threat position before taking a shot.
The shooter than collects their ball, whether it's a rebound or a successfully completed shot, and then passes back to their partner before running back to the half way line.
Players should repeat this 5 times before swapping with their partner.
If you are working in a large group split your team in half and work this drill in both halves of the court at the same time.
For a competition get players to count how many times out of 5 they score.
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.
