One feeder, one worker. Feeder will pass ball in various directions: side; forward (dropped ball or bounce pass) and back behind worker (shoulder or O/head). Worker receives the ball in that space controlling their footwork. Quick and accurate movements.
Feeder - make sure the worker is working to get the ball, try to place the ball in front to allow them to stretch for the ball. Worker - ensure you are on your toes (perhaps fast feet), ready to react to the pass and put weight on outside foot to catch the ball in a controlled manner.

Tight markers win when attackers run in straight lines. Teach your players to dodge, change pace and time their drive so they get free when the ball is ready.
When everyone chases the ball, nobody is free. Teach your team to spread out, offer two options and clear space so the ball moves cleanly down court.
A shooter who can hold a strong position under the post is worth more than one who runs all over the circle. Here is how to coach body shape, a legal hold and a well-timed release, and how feeders make the most of it.
