Basketball drills for technique attack / offense

• Two men around the bucket for defense
• Three attackers:
• Attacker 1 passes the ball to attacker 2 
• All three attackers pass the ball around until one sees a gap and can get into the bucket
• He adjusts the ball and tries to score
• Up to 5 points, then switch roles and the attacker who has scored least stays in the attack.

Requirements:

• Stopping two feet together, pivoting, lay-up and jumpshot must be known

Aim:

• When passing, jump towards the ball with feet coming down correctly to start the next movement. (pivoting, start dribble)

Organization:

1. Coach gives passes from position 1, alternating left and right from under the basket. Give passes where jump-to-the-ball applies.

2. Player starts under the basket (2 groups of 5 to 6 players, of which two/group have a ball) ==> fast; explosive exercise.

3. Run to cone under the basket and quickly pushes himself away towards the cone at spot 2 or 3.

4. Makes movement from the cone to the ball to get the pass and perform a jump-to-the-ball.

5. After getting the ball pivot and attack towards the basket (first lay-up, then shot)

6. After finishing, change sides and pass the ball
