The drill starts with 4 defensive players lined up across the free throw line extended and 4 offensive players lined up on the baseline straight across from them.

The coach will start the drill by passing the ball to a random offensive player.

On the pass, the defender that is matched up with the ball must touch the baseline before getting back on defense.

The other 3 defenders must get back, stop ball and match up in help until their 4th defender gets back into the play.

Offensively, work on spacing and sprinting the lanes. Ideally pushing the ball up the middle of the court.

Remember, passing the ball up the court is faster than dribbling and will take more advantage of the mismatch.

If defense is able to stop the transition offense, they continue playing 4v4 until a score or stop.

The drill starts over on this side of the court, switching offense and defense heading the other direction.
