Split your players into 3s and select 2 lines on the court (ideally getting players to work within a third of the court each).
On the whistle the attacker (white) sprints to either line. The attacker should use a sudden change of direction and sprint to receive the ball from the feeder, away from the defender who is marking them.
Encourage players to drive out to meet the ball - not wait for the ball to come to them.
Try to get players to land on their outside foot.
Players need to explore different ways of getting away from the defender these should include:
More able players should be looking to use their body to fake a movement to deceive the defender.

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.
