Play Type:“ “ Defensive Drill
Purpose:
This drill focuses on chinning the basketball on a rebound, v-cuts, outlet passes and finishing with contact.
Set Up:
- Each player in the line with number 1 has a basketball.
Execution:
- To start the drill the player in line one throws the basketball off the backboard and jumps as high as he can and rebounds it.
- The player chins the basketball and outlets it to lin.
- When the player passes the basketball he fills in behind line 2.
- Line 2 receives the ball and passes it to line 3. Before line 3 receives the ball the player must v-cut to come to the ball.
- When the player passes the ball from line 3 he fills in behind line 3.
- When line 3 receives the ball he passes it to line 4 for a backdoor layup which is also set up by a v-cut.
- After the player in line 4 finishes the layup he speed dribbles to the other end and throws the basketball off the backboard and the drill starts again.
Coaching Tips
- I usually have a coach under the basket with line 4 with a football pad trying to create some contact on the layup.
