Basketball: Phantom pick and roll drill

Setup as shown. Split the group into two with a further person starting on the cone as shown. Player 1 passes the ball to player 2 before giving a handoff pass back to player 1. Player 2 then turns to make a screen, with player 3 making a run, then making a cut before receiving a pass from player 1 and shooting.

Players join with another group of 3. One group plays passive defence to start off with. As the attacking team improves they the defending team progressively become more active.

The back screen happens when the lower offensive player sets a screen for a player higher up on the court. The screen will be set on someone's back and the player receiving the screen will cut towards the basket.

The attacker starts on the sideline of the court, with the defender facing away from the ball. The attacker then feints goal wards then comes back across the defender to receive the pass.

This type of screen will be used to get a player open for a shot. The screeners will stand side by side which makes it a wider screen so it is harder for a defender to get around.

The player at the elbow will go and set a screen on the player along the baseline. Once the screen is set the player receiving the screen will cut up towards the elbow. The screener will roll to the basket.

The down screen will happen away from the ball. The player receiving the screen will step over the screen and then take 2 long backward steps away from the screen towards the corner of the court. The screener will turn and cut back towards the ball. This cut will happen if the defender tries to get around the screen and stop the cut towards the ball.

The flare screen is set on the side of a defensive player. The player receiving the screen will cut out towards the sideline away from the ball.

Setup the practice as shown. Player 3 runs into the arc and runs off the screen created by player 2 before receiving the ball from player 1, turning and then shooting. Player 3 then collects the ball and returns the ball back to player 1.

Players stand in three lines, the players nearest the half-way line start with the ball in hand. The blue players starts the drill by making the pass to the white players, and then sets the screen for the red player. The red player then cuts off the top of the screen towards the ball. Meanwhile the blue player will reverse pivot and roll towards the basket. The White players can choose to pass to either the red or blue player to have the shot.

One attacking player sets up near sideline with the ball.  2 defenders set up in line to defend players. Other attacking player sets a screen on first defender. This opens the player up for a pass and a shot or clears the way for a lay up.     

The down screen will happen away from the ball. The player receiving the screen will fake away from the basket and then back cut to the hoop where they will catch the ball and shoot a lay up. The player setting the screen will pop back towards the ball.

The dribbler will use the ball screen and take 1 or 2 bounces to get separation. Once they have created separation the dribbler will make a bounce pass to the roller for a shot.

The dribbler will use the ball screen and take 1 or 2 bounces to get separation. Once they have created separation the dribbler will make a bounce pass to the roller for a lay up.

The screen goes to be set on the dribbler, the screeners defender will hedge out early to stop the ball. This is where the screener will slip directly to the basket for a lay up.

Player 1 passes the ball to player 2 before running forwards to make a screen on them. Player 2 proceeds to dribble around player 1 before going for a jump shot. Players then rotate (player 1 becomes player 2 and player joins the back of the line).

Screen the screener involves 3 players. 1 player will set a screen for another player, then an additional screen will happen for the player that set the 1st screen.

Player 1 with the ball. Player 2 sets the screen at either side of the defender. When the screen is set player 1 fakes to the opposite side then crosses back to rub shoulders with the screener, before dribbling past and either taking a shot or a lay up.

Setup as shown. Split the group into three groups. Player 1 passes to player 2 before going to set a lateral screen for player 3. Player 3 cuts off the screen to receive the pass and shoot.

A staggered screen is 2 individual screens that will be set to get 1 player open. The player will run around both screens to receive the ball for a shot.
