A short video from Dr. Dish Basketball.
The coach presenting in this video is Special Jennings, Head Girls Basketball Coach at Montverde Academy in in Montverde, Florida.
In this skill development drill, players shoot from 5 spots for one minute on each spot.
The goal is to make 10 shots from each spot in that minute time.
You should adjust that to what would challenge, but not overwhelm your players.

The drill being demonstrated is called “One More” as it emphasizes making an extra pass. Making an extra pass should always lead to a better shot or end up with the ball in the hands of a better shooter. It should never be just to make an extra pass.
Take the movements in the video and create your own drill that simulates the actions that your offensive schemes produces in games.

The drill is a great drill to work on developing the ability to make shots when your players are tired.
To win part one of the Nugget Drill, the players must make 3 shots in a row. If they miss 2 in a row, they run a down and back. They are sliding from the wing to the corner.
In part 2, players sprint into a shot from half court with the same rules for the drill–make 3 in a row, you win, miss two in a row, you run a down and back and start over.

Both of the videos are good ideas for some shooting work that your players can do prior to the start of practice and can also be used in the skill development portion of your practices.

I like the idea of shooting fts in streaks. I believe it is a good way to put some pressure on the shooter. The thing to watch is to make sure that the shooters do not speed up their free throw routine. They need to use the exact routine in the drill that they do in a game or the drill will be worthless. As Pro Football Hall of Fame Coach Chuck Knox said, “Practice without improvement is meaningless.”

I really like these gamelike shooting drills that players can work on in pairs.
If this were an organized workout with a coach, I would not want the player wearing a hat. Please don’t let that detract from this post. The purpose is to give you ideas as to if this type of drill would help your players improve, not to focus on what they are wearing. My guess is that their coach is happy that they are working on their games!
Drill #1 Pitch & Ghost Screen, against the Grain Hook Pass, Inside Hand release from a Dribble Hand Off
Drill #2 Drive & kick with a flare cut and return pass
Drill #3 Attack the nail, kick & pitch, against the grain hook pass.
These are ideas to stimulate your thinking. You probably have different actions that you run. I hope this video inspires you to create some drills that put your actions together. I leave it up to you to put a timing and scoring system with them.

FIBA Player Development Coach Carlos Frade shows a drill to teach 2 on 1 decision making.
There are two drills in the post. The first one is a one on one drill that is good to teach to attack the front hand of the defender closing out.
The second drill is the one that I really like. it is a very good 2 on 1 decision making and is scored based on how efficiently (minimizing passes and dribbles) the 2 offensive players can MAKE a shot.
