*Circle Shooting is a very popular shooting drill, and for good reason. This drill flows best with at least 5 players and 2 basketballs.

-Player 1 circle cuts around the cone (aka Coach).

-We emphasize the inside pivot. In this diagram Player 1 plants his right foot and front pivots on the catch (heel-toe).

-Player 1 shoots (not a layup).

*At this first spot we like for the shooter to shoot with his left-hand on the left side and right-hand on the right side.

-Immediately after passing, Player 2 circles cuts and repeats the action with a front left pivot.

-Meanwhile, Player 1 gets his own and takes the ball to the line he is going to.

*After a few minutes or certain number of makes, we will progress to the next spot.
