Basketball: Individual cuts and shooting

Move off the lane about 5 meters to face the sideline.

1. Toss the ball into the middle,
2. jab step and cut, catch, chin and do a lift fake,
3. drop step back to the original position,
4. bounce once, hop and shoot a fully extended jump shot off the board.

Start position is on the block.

1. Toss the ball to the free throw line extended at the three-point line.
2. Jag, step and cut to catch the ball in a quick step.
3. Take the ball to the shooting pocket and forward pivot into the triple threat position facing the front pocket.
4. Do a shoulder fake towards the free throw line and drive on a dribble to the baseline taking a shot from about 8 meters.

This is another drill that can be used for lay-ups or shooting.

The players line up in two lines under the basket (one to the left and one to the right). One lane has a ball at the front and the other line has a ball with the second person.

The first person (without the ball) curves around to the opposite line to receive a pass and make a lay-up, they then get their own rebound and pass back to the queue from which they received the ball. As soon as the passer has passed, they curve round and get a pass from the other side they take a shot and get their own rebound and pass back to the queue they received it from.
