Basketball Drills

Basketball Drills Tennessee Shooting

By Brian Williams on October 15, 2013

This video is a team shooting drill that also is a good conditioner.

The competitive aspect is competing against an established standard and/or your team’s best score.

The video is a You Tube video so make sure that you are on a server that allows You Tube access.

I have also listed some skill development drills that have already been posted on the site below the video.

Make sure your sound is on.

Basketball Drills Shaka Smart Hustle Drill

By Brian Williams on October 8, 2013

This drill was posted by Coach Trevor Daugherty on Fast Model’s Basketball Coaching Plays and Drill library.

You can see all of the plays and drill they have posted on this link:

Fast Model plays and drills library

Coach Daugherty stated: ” This is one of my favorite hustle drills that I have seen out there, great combination of team unity and effort..”

Below the diagram and the description of the drill, there is a You Tube video of Shaka Smart doing the drill himself to end VCU’s Final Four practice in 2011

 

Basketball Drills

X1 starts by defending post,

Coach1 throws ball to corner who drives,

X1 must take charge, then sprint to sideline where Coach2 rolls by towards endline for diving save,

X1 then sprints to opposite sideline where he must jump to save ball thrown by Coach.

Make sure your sound is on to see the You Tube video below of Shaka Smart demonstrating the drill at the 2011 Final Four.

Even though the video was filmed several years ago, the drill still has value.

It will have even more value if you add in your own ideas and make it something that fits what you do.

Here is another video of Shaka Smart going through a portion of his diamond press:

Basketball Conditioning Alan Stein

By Brian Williams on October 2, 2013

With many programs doing some planning in the next few weeks for their pre-season conditioning, here are three videos of conditioning drills from Alan Stein.

The videos are You Tube videos, so if you are on a server that blocks You Tube, you will not be able to see them.

Make sure that your sound is on and click the play arrow to watch each video.

The first video shows 2 drills working on change of direction, athletic explosiveness, and starting and stopping quickly.

The second video defines his term “hockey stop” and demonstrates another change of direction drill.

I really like Alan and his work. I would however, change the name on the third drill to something other than Suicide.

Make sure your sound is on to watch the videos

Tennis Ball Roll Out and Two Ball Dance

Hockey Stop

This second video is an another drill and Alan defining his Hockey Stop Term.

Basketball Drills Bob Huggins Defense

By Brian Williams on September 27, 2013

These videos are from West Virginia basketball practrices.

The videos are You Tube videos so make sure that you are on a server that allows You Tube access.

They are both called “Sprint to Help.”

Make sure your sound is on.

The first drill is a buildup portion to his 4 on 4 shell which he calls “Sprint to Help” in order to emphasize getting off to the ball with an explosion rather than a half speed slide.

Click the play arrows to view the videos.

Basketball Drills Ranger Defense

By Brian Williams on September 24, 2013

This video below the diagrams is from a Creighton basketball practice.

Ranger Defensive Drill

As with everything I post, my purpose is to stimulate you to think in detail about the way that would be best for you to play the given situations, not to tell you how I think you should coach it.

All Access Creighton Basketball Practice

The video is 3 minutes and 48 seconds long.
