Player 1 will toss ball onto the backboard get a defensive rebound using all good fundamentals
Player 4 will signal and call for outlet pass.
Player 1 pivots and makes a good chest or overhead pass, then following their pass and joining outlet line.
Player 4 passes to Player 2 and follows their pass to join the rebounding line.
Rebounding is the least glamorous thing in basketball and one of the most decisive. It is also almost entirely a habit, which means it is entirely coachable.
Good spacing is only the start. The best modern offences teach players to attack the defence's rotations and play in a permanent 4-on-3 - here is how to coach that read.
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.
