Players will be stood underneath the basket.
One player will step out in front of the basket and shoot a jump hook.
Once the shot has been taken that player will get the rebound and pass the ball to the next player. This is a continuous drill and can be stopped or changed when you want the player to shoot with a different hand.
A jump hook is shot by being side on to the basket and shooting the ball over your body. This shot is taken when you are closely guarded near the basket. Your body will provide separation to allow you to get the shot off over the defender.
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.
