Play Type:“ “ Transition Defense
Purpose:
Transition defense takes place during this drill, along with offensive spacing and movement. This drill also teaches players to play fast.
Set Up:
Players must touch a cone while the game continues going to the other end of the court. For a brief moment, the situation is 4 on 5 until the man down recovers and picks up their original man.
Execution:
- 3 stops team wins
- The player who gets ball on defense must run around the cone then get back to find an open man
- The closest person to the ball JAMS the dribbler
- The next guard rotates to middle back
- The post rotates to LOW HOLE
- The diagonal back is covered by the other forward.
Coaching Tips:
- In this drill, I would recommend going down, back, and down again before the drill ends.
