Initial setup. 1 has the ball at the top, 5 on the left wing.
DESCRIPTION
Player sprints from baseline to the three-point line, receives a pass from a partner under the basket, and shoots immediately on the catch. Sprint, catch, shoot. 10 makes from each of 5 spots.
Replicates real-game shooting fatigue. Pure shots are easy; tired shots win games.
COACHING POINTS
Sprint — actually run hard, not jog.
Set feet on the catch — don't fade away.
Same form whether you're fresh or gassed.
Breathe — exhale on release.
Commit to the shot — no second-guessing.
Add a closeout defender. Run to a different spot than the partner expects (read on the fly). Pair with another shooter — competition who hits 10 first. Backwards sprint return between shots.
