Two Players, One ball.
The receiver Stands on the center cone, facing AWAY from the feeder.
The feeder, standing three meters away from their partner is standing in a forward stance, ready to pass the ball.
The feeder will give a command, directing the receiver the either stay, run left or run right. Depending on the command, the receiver must make a quick and decisive 180 degree turn to face their partner before then driving to receive and return the pass from where they have been directed to by their partner.
This drill will ensure your players drive onto the ball and don't dawdle.
To add variety to this drill you can instruct your players to use a variety of different passes:

Tight markers win when attackers run in straight lines. Teach your players to dodge, change pace and time their drive so they get free when the ball is ready.
When everyone chases the ball, nobody is free. Teach your team to spread out, offer two options and clear space so the ball moves cleanly down court.
A shooter who can hold a strong position under the post is worth more than one who runs all over the circle. Here is how to coach body shape, a legal hold and a well-timed release, and how feeders make the most of it.
