DHO bounce off Hit the Dive
Game Scenario
Player will start with the ball on the elbow, and dribble to the wing to initiate the hand off.
Once the guard takes the hand off and bounces off to get around the hedge, the big must dive hard to the rim while the hedge is concerned with the ball handler.
Player will then make a high pass to the diver as they fly to the rim, catch with two hands, power dribble and finish jumping off of two feet.
Breakdown Drill
Like any drill, you can add more complexity once you have taught and repeated the techniques that you want to teach.
You can add a helping defender or whatever else you need to add to teach proper decision making.
