OFTEN USED WITH...

Double Switch:

Player 2 runs cross court in front of player 1 and receives the pass.

Player 1 then cuts in court to receive the return pass.

After the receiving the ball they then run into the key and then have a shot.

Shooting

Dribble, cut, pass then shoot:

Setup the practice as shown.

Player 1 dribbles to the cone before passing the ball to player 2. Player 2 makes a run to the cone before making a cut to receive the ball from player 1 and then having a shot.

Shooting

Dean Smith Drill:

Players 1 2 will shoot the ball to each other.
Concentrate on good shooting form and "arc".

Shooting

Double drop step:

From the block do a spin back, drop step to the power box, lift fake from the chin position, jump step to a hook.

Concentrate on not bringing the ball down below the shoulders.

When shooting learn to keep the ball up from the chin position. If you move that ball even a centimeter away from that body the defender will be able to knock it away.

Do twenty each side of the double drop step.
