Four-on-four shell work on gap and help positions. The defender one pass away stays in the gap, those two or three away help the helper.

Transition progression from 1v2 to 2v3, 3v4, 4v5 and 5v5. The offense learns to read outnumbered situations and find a good shot fast.

End-of-practice layup drill where every pass, catch, rebound and finish must be clean. One mistake and the whole team starts over.

Five-on-five transition with a 16-second shot clock. Push for an early shot, then flow into early or motion offense, even after a make.

Guard drill for 2 or 3 players. Keep the dribble in rhythm with eyes up, then deliver the pass with speed and accuracy.

Three players run four fast break options to learn lanes, timing and spacing, building cut and screen reads that carry into motion offense.

Two players run three fast break options to learn lanes, timing and spacing, and when to cut or screen. Run it early in practice.

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.
