post passing
may I ask about the objective of this drill?
1-5 Post Passing
DESCRIPTION
The player underneath the basket begins with a ball and tosses if off the backboard, simulating a rebound. They then pass to the point guard on the wing and sprints forward, while the player on the wing dribbles with quick feet through the cones. Once the player dribbling has reach the end of the cones, they will then pass to the player on the run for a lay up.

Hi Rachellesyn, there are many objectives of this drill. These include:
- Post entry passing from guards to centers.
- Post player positioning and sealing for better target creation.
- Timing and communication between players.
- Footwork and finishing moves in the post.
- Handling defensive pressure in game-like situations.
This drill develops coordination between guards and post players, enhancing offensive execution.
I hope this helps,
Cam
