Basketball drill: 2 vs 0 full court side lane
2 vs 0 full court side lane
- Centers + Guards + Forwards - starting from U12
- 2 or more players
- 1 ball per pair
- two baskets
Requirements:
- Performing a layup while running and receiving a pass
Aim:
- Speed dribble along the sideline because it is the shortest route to the other side
- pass and catch at speed
Organization:
- player shoots a free throw and takes the rebound
- catch the ball as high as possible
- 3 sprints to the outlet position and calls
- passes with an overhead pass to the outlet
- the man with the ball dribbles along the sideline as fast as possible
- the man with the ball passes to the one who shot
- gets the pass at full speed
- and makes the layup without a dribble
Teaching Points:
- Sprinting
- communication
- correct dribble start
- pushing the ball at speed dribble
- dribbler should see where the flyer is
- pass timing
- shooter catches his own ball
- Player that passes the ball sprints under the circle to the outlet on the other side
- calls
- gets the ball at the outlet position with an overhead pass
- Both players walk the same 2 to 0 break as on the way there
- but now on the other half of the field
Variation:
- Put 1 defender at each basket
- Defender catches the ball and gives outlet pass
- and becomes a flyer
- shooter becomes defender
