Type: Cutting, Passing, Shooting

Description:

Players form two lines outside three-point line.

All players, except for first in each line 

have a ball.

First players in each line run into key and v-cut

back to ball.

Players "show ten fingers" and call to receive ball

from next player in line. After receiving pass they

square up to basket and either shoot, dribble/drive

for lay-up or dribble into jump shot.

Passer can repeat move once shooter has gone  

to basket or shot the ball.

Players rebound their own balls and dribble back  

up court to end of lines. They are coming back  

through subsequent pairs who are completing drill  

(creating traffic).

Variations:

If full-court available, have players dribble to opposite end for a

lay-up before they return to lines.

Points of Emphasis:

1. Plant foot and push off hard for good change of direction on cut.

2. Showing "ten fingers" and calling for ball.

3. Catch and face into triple threat.
