This drill is to teach the deep man in our defense to run directly to the rim and try to only make 1 play on the ball before focusing on rebounding the miss or getting the ball out of the net to immediately start our fast break.
One of the wings has the ball and attacks the rim. They can drive for a layup themselves or pass it to the other wing for a shot. The offensive goal is to make one pass and attack the basket. Defensively, our deep man will turn and sprint to the front of the rim and turn around. They will try to steal the pass or block layup attempt. If they are a smaller player, they will armbar the layup attempt. 3 IFS IF the defender misses the steal, they must focus on the rebound; IF one of the shooters spots up for a shot, the defender must focus on the rebound; IF the two players are too fast and beat the deep player up the floor, the defender must focus on the rebound. If the offense makes the shot, the defender will take the ball out of bounds then 1-2-3 throw to the next player who is in the line to the defender's right. If the defender successfully stops the offense with a defensive rebound or a steal, they will immediately pass the ball to the player in line to the defender's left. After each basket attempt, the three players will run to the line that clockwise from their previous line.
