Basketball: Drop Step Baseline

Develop your players' knowledge, understanding and game skills to play the center position by working on ball handling, and finishing around the basket and perimeter

From the block do a spin back, drop step to the power box, lift fake from the chin position, jump step to a hook.

Concentrate on not bringing the ball down below the shoulders.

When shooting learn to keep the ball up from the chin position. If you move that ball even a centimeter away from that body the defender will be able to knock it away.

Do twenty each side of the double drop step.

This drill needs 1 passer and 1 player posting up ready to shoot the basketball, but can be done with more players.

The pass will be made into the post, once the player receives the ball they will drop step and shoot. Watch the video to see the footwork of the move.

Have a player or the coach on one side of the court with a ball, looking to pass to the attacker.

The attacker should start on the other side of the court and will try to get past the defender and get closer to the ball so he can receive the pass.
