Coach (A) points in the direction that the player BLUE is to dribble
BLUE must dribble at least as wide as the cone in that direction before performing a cross over and cutting back towards opposite cone (shaking the defender)
Upon reaching the opposite cone BLUE cuts hard to the basket and must dribble inside the key (inside the low cones)
To shake a defender the player with the ball MUST move far enough with the ball to force the defender to move his feet.
Once defender is moving cut hard in opposite direction to gain an advantage in order to cut into the key.
Talent wins games, but chemistry wins championships. Building a positive team culture, establishing shared values, and developing trust creates teams that exceed the sum of their parts.
Getting to the rim is only half the battle. Converting against shot blockers and help defenders requires a toolkit of creative finishes. The best scorers have multiple ways to score at the basket.
Traditional positions are becoming obsolete. Modern basketball rewards versatile players who can handle, pass, shoot, and defend across multiple positions. Developing these skills creates valuable, adaptable players.
