Favorite Send to FastDrawCompetitive, high energy shooting drill that works on the 1 dribble pullup. Has multiple variations, including competing against the clock, 2 or more in a row at each spot, etc. Great to use during Improvement Season workouts or as a change of pace in practice. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawFast-paced drill focusing on footwork, balance, and of course putting the ball in the basket. 30 seconds for each rotation keeps it fresh and helps players learn to score from multiple spots on the floor with regularity. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawUse this drill as a way to build your transition game, half-court offense spacing, and communication. Can run for a certain amount of time, or give a certain number of reps to each group of 3. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawThe Las Vegas Aces run this quick hitter after timeouts and in late game situations to get their best offensive player, Kayla McBride, a shot/drive decision in the nail area to score.

Favorite Send to FastDrawThe Aces pull this rabbit out of the hat to open the quarter and give a completely different look than their base offenses. There are multiple scoring options here including a flare skip, a 1 on 1 at the elbow, or an empty corner drive if the UCLA cut and pass is not there.

Favorite Send to FastDrawSimple, but effective, this quick hitter is used to get an open high low catch in the post to score. If that is not open, the screener is then isolated against a defender closing fast, creating an immediate shot/drive decision.

Favorite Send to FastDrawWhen you have a dynamic scorer like Kayla McBride, you MUST find a way to get them the ball where and when they want it. The Aces drink from this well quite often, as they try to get McBride coming off a double stagger on the baseline. She is so adept at using screens and is one of the most explosive players in the world - this quick hitter allows her to get the ball with a quick shot/drive decision and plenty of space to work with.

Favorite Send to FastDrawWith 10.8 seconds left in the fourth quarter the Blazers were down by three and were inbounding the ball on the baseline. When the inbounder gets the ball, CJ McCollum darts out to the wing while Damian Lillard sets a screen for Al-Farouq Aminu and then runs to the weakside corner coming off an Allen Crabbe screen. Aminu comes off the Lillard pick to set one for McCollum who gets the pass from Mason Plumlee. The Pistons do not switch probably and McCollum drills a wide open three which forces overtime. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawIn the second overtime the Pistons won the game on their third option of the play. It starts out with the Marcus Morris running from the strongside corner to the weakside wing. Then Caldwell-Pope comes off a back pick for a lob set by Tobias Harris who then comes off a screen from Andre Drummond to bring him to the strongside wing. He's not open and Drummond set a pick to bring Caldwell-Pope to the three who catches it and wins the game for Detroit. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawRotations are extremely difficult to nail down and teams must drill constantly to make sure there is an understanding of who is rotating. The other factor that makes these rotations work is constant communication. The best defenses are constantly talking and communicating with each other. Another note when practicing the rotations, it is important to have all players practice every position in the rotation. It helps them learn what their teammates are doing but situations may occur where they will be in position. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawThe Memphis Grizzlies ran this down 4 with 20 seconds left in an NBA Summer League game. In this situation they would need 2 scores and they opted to go for the 3 coming out of a timeout. The multiple screening actions from 4 & 5 caused the defensive confusion and led to an open shot for 4. 4 & 5's defenders have to guard back to back screening actions, first with the Iverson cut made by 2 and then the elevator screen for 3. If 5 cut to the basket instead of drifting to the perimeter he might have gotten a layup or at least would have created more space for the shot from 4. See More
Favorite Send to FastDrawNigeria runs this as a counter to their regular Chin sets. 1 would normally use the back screen from 5, but in this play he goes over the flare from 4. After getting the ball, 1 drives baseline looking for an open shot off the hammer screen from 5 or for 2 filling behind. See More
