Layups: Both Hands & Angles

Players finish layups from multiple angles. Build both-hand confidence and correct approach footwork to the rim.

Instructions

1. Place cones at right wing, left wing, and top of key.
2. Player starts at a cone, attacks with 1-2 hard dribbles, and finishes.
3. Rule: right side finishes with right hand, left side with left hand.
4. After make/miss, player rebounds and goes to the next cone.

Coaching Points

• Use long-short footwork on the last two steps
• Keep the finish controlled and on rhythm.
• Protect the ball on the gather. Use two hands.
• Use the backboard with the correct angle
