Instructions

  1. Form one line on the left side and one line on the right side, as shown. Use at least 4 balls
  2. Player 1 attacks the basket and kicks out to the opposite corner, where Player 2 relocates
  3. After the kick-out, Player 1 sprints through the stagger-exit action to the top
  4. Each player gets their own rebound and joins the line on the opposite side
  5. Change side after a while

Coaching Points

  • Attack the paint under control and make the kick-out pass on time and on target
  • On the corner shot, drift into position and arrive ready to shoot with the legs loaded
  • On the stagger exit, sprint into the catch, set the feet, and establish balance before shooting

Variations

  • Make the kick-out pass directly off the dribble
  • Move the shots to the high post and short corner
