Dennis Rodman, nicknamed Dennis the Menace, was known for his defensive hustle and his brilliant rebound record despite his relatively small height - however, another strong part of his game was what came next - The outlet pass!
The outlet pass is a great way to start a fast break. Below we outline some of the key features your players will need to catch the opposition on the hop with a fast break.
