Type: Transition

Description:

Players form three lines at baseline.

A cone or chair is placed on court at opposite

end on three-point line at free-throw line

extended.

On way down court, player 1 sprints the lane

and goes outside the cone and cuts to the basket,

timing run for pass from other two players

who are passing the ball down the court whilst

running in their lanes (see diagram A).

Player 1 scores with a lay-up.

Middle lane (player 2) rebounds the ball

while outside players exchange lanes.

Player 3 runs outside the cone, and runs the

outside lane looking for pass from the

other two players  (see diagram B).

Player 3 scores with a lay-up.

Players join end of a different line and drill continues.

Variations:

1. Create traffic and heads-up play by starting

    second and subsequent

    groups when previous group scores.

2. Time players (how many scores in set time

    period e.g. two minutes) – have a team record

    that you constantly try and beat each time.

Points of Emphasis:

1. Teamwork - timing, communication, effort.

2. Transition - sprint the drill.

3. Pass in front of a moving player.

4. Ball does not hit the floor for entire drill.
