The coach begins the drill by passing to one of the offensive players. As soon as they catch it, all three players sprint up and around the cones. Players now compete in a live 2 on 1 situation. The drill doesnât stop until either a made basketball or the defender gets possession of the basketball from a rebound or steal. Players then pass the basketball back to the coach and join a different line. Variations: Distance of Cones - You can adjust the distance of the cones to be further away or closer to the basket. 3 on 2 Transition - Instead of 2 on 1, you can add an extra two cones and make it a 3 on 2 transition.
The offensive players must be attacking fast. Remind them that itâs a fast-break situation. Offensive players should keep it simple. If the defender doesnât step into your lane, score. If they do, pass. The defender must protect the rim and try and cause confusion for the ball-handler. Correct spacing is most important for the offensive team!
