Pistol Offense Breakdown Drills

By kevin roy on October 9, 2025

Pistol Offense Breakdown Drills

In this video Coach Molly Miller demostrates some Pistol Offense Breakdown Dills.

In this clip she is breaking down the options in what she calls Pistol Up.

In the drill the wing breaks up above the 3pt line to receive a pass from the guard. In the first option the guard sprints to the players that received the pass , takes the handoff and drives to the basket and finishes.

In the second read the guard takes the handoff and the pass to the wing player and passes the ball back to the wing player who has received a flare screen from the player at the point. This great action for a quick 3pt shot.

The final option in Pistol Up is for the guard to receove the handoff and pass to the players that has slipped the flare screen.

The drill is a great example of how to breakdown your offense into the parts that make it work.

This clip was taken from Coach Miller full clinic presentation. To gain access to the full clinic click the following link Camp Buckets’ – Learning the Pistol Offense – Post/Perimeter Breakdown Drills, Actions, Decision-Making & More!
