Simple defensive skill drill working off-ball positioning and on-ball approaches. Bring 4 players, 2 will be on offense, 2 on defense. The 2 offensive players will be 20-yards apart, with a cone or mid-line dividing them. The defensive players will set up on-ball and at the mid-point in an open position to see man and ball. The offensive players will play catch, while the defensive players will alternate with good on-ball approaches and off-ball fills.

Chalk talk for a 4 Man Rotation on Man Down.

Shooting drill that simulates the actions of pass-down, pick-down 2-man game. Start with a line with the balls located top-center-right and another line on the right wing. Mirror this setup on the left side. The top line will pass down to the wing, get depth and return to set a screen. Meanwhile, the wing man will ‘drift’ to get into a good dodging location to work from the screen. In the UNDER variation, the dodger works under the pick and finishes with a shot down the alley.

Sailor Flip is a 1v1 variation. It initiates with stickwork, a push pass down the alley, ball carry through X and then a feed up top to initiate the 1v1.
