Basketball drills for technique attack / offense

• One row on the baseline/corner and one row in the center circle with ball.
• Pass to the corner and then run to the same corner and get the ball back at the post.
• Then there are a number of possibilities such as open-step or crossover and 1 vs 0 to the basket.
• Adjuster takes care of the rebound.

• 4 things you can do after passing:
  • Ball-screen.
  • Screen away.
  • Cut to the basket (example: give and go, or back-cut). Back cut if the defender is denying the pass.
  • V-cut and pop back outside for the return pass and outside shot.
• Rules without the ball:
  • If you have an under-play (defender sagging off), pop out to spread the defense.
  • If you have an overplay (being denied), backcut.
  • Someone dribbling at you, backcut (except for the weave plays).
  • Fill the open spot when a teammate cuts inside.
  • When someone dribble-penetrates, relocate.
  • Screen away, and pop out.
  • The most important rule is to keep moving.
