Basketball Drills

Four players run six fast break options to learn lanes, timing and spacing, and when to cut or screen. Habits carry over to motion offense.

Half court 3v3 game that starts with a slot drive. Defenders help from the weak side and rotate while the offense reads the kick out.

Continuous full-court layups with one ball from both ends. Trains quick outlets and pushing the ball ahead with passes toward a team goal.

Drive-and-kick passing around four spots for 5 or more players. Drive at game speed, kick to the corner and make the extra pass.

Groups of three shoot threes with two balls, rebounding their own shot and moving to a new spot. Builds catch-and-shoot rhythm and conditioning.

Pass, close out and guard the drive, then rotate as the ball swings to the other wing. Runs continuously from both sides.

Half court drill from Nick Nurse where the defense switches every dribble handoff. Builds clean switches that take away the split.

Four rounds of pivoting and passing: right and left pivots with bounce passes, then right and left reverse pivots with chest passes.

Two-team three-point shooting drill off a rebound kick out and one more pass. Builds quick ball movement and catch-and-shoot threes.

Five players, one ball, full court. Every trip is outlet, middle, far wing and a layup, with players rotating spots after each make.

Team shooting race where every make swings the score and the first team 4 up wins. Builds shooting under pressure, rebounding and quick passes.

Three defenders against four in the half court. The defense protects the rim and recovers, the offense learns to find the open player.

Twelve dynamic moves, 30 seconds each, from jumping jacks to glute bridges. Preps players for game speed in 8 to 12 minutes.

Half court 3v3 game to 11 that starts every possession with Zoom action. Players read the handoff, back cut and play out of the screen.

Three players, one ball and no dribbles, down and back. A dropped ball, bad pass or missed layup makes the rep count as zero.

1-3-1 zone part drill for the chaser, middle and tail. Six offensive players pass the ball around while the spine rotates on every pass.
