Three-Player Drive and Kick

Three players work from outside the 3-point line on drive-and-kick passing, extra passes, and off-ball relocation. Each player drives once, kicks out, and the group finishes with a shot off the extra pass.

Instructions

1. Start with 3 players spaced outside the 3-point line and 1 ball
2. Player 1 attacks the lane with 2 to 3 dribbles to collapse an imaginary defender
3. Player 1 jump stops in the paint and kicks out to Player 2
4. Player 2 makes the extra pass to Player 3
5. Player 3 attacks the lane with 2 to 3 dribbles, jump stops, and kicks out to Player 1, who relocates outside the 3-point line
6. Continue the same pattern until all 3 players have driven once
7. After the third drive-and-kick, make one extra pass and shoot
8. Rebound, reset, and start the next rep.

Coaching Points

• Attack the paint with control. Use 2 to 3 hard dribbles
• Pass while balanced
• Make the extra pass quickly. Do not hold the ball
• Relocate outside the 3-point line after driving. Keep eyes on the action

Variations

• Require the driver to pass off the dribble instead of using a jump stop
• Make it a shooting contest between teams
