Basketball: Practise shooting in a game situation 2

Make sure that feet are in front of the defenders feet, back is bent, knees are bent, and as wide as possible.Keep good balance.

Keep arms wide and target hand up.

Post up on the block and using a toss back or spin back, catch the spin back and meet the quick pass.

Always chin the ball when close to the basket and keep it there at all times unless going to shoot or dribble.

If pressured by a double team then pivot away from the pressure but keep the ball chinned.

With knees bent and back bent to 20 degrees, drop step then turn.

Bounce the ball then chin the ball up to the power box and being square to the board, shoot.

Do twenty of these then move to the other side and do the same thing.

After a shot is released move quickly to a re-rounding position and put back with a power move.

Remember to open out to get more reach.

Go up to the shot from the chin position. Do not take the ball outwards then up.

Do twenty of these on each side.

Pull up about 4 meters out and shoot a drop shot.

Imagine having to shoot over bigger people so put a little bit more height on the ball to stimulate a game situation.

Make sure this drill is done in both directions changing hands each time.

Do this drill from anywhere on the court beyond the perimeter three point line.

Use different changes in direction dribbles like behind the back, through the legs and spin dribbles. Take shots from 4-8 feet.
