Setup
A wing with the ball guarded by a defender, and a post on the block guarded by a post defender. Cones mark three entry spots: top of the key, wing and short corner.
How it runs
- Wing catches and looks inside while the post seals on the ball-to-basket line.
- If the defender plays high side, the wing takes one dribble toward the baseline or corner to open the low entry lane.
- If the defender plays low side, the wing dribbles up toward the top to open the high entry lane.
- Wing fakes a pass to move the on-ball defender's hands, then passes with the hand away from the defender.
- Post scores in one move; the passer relocates to an open spot for a kick-out.
Coaching point
One dribble can turn a closed lane into an open one; improve the angle rather than throw over hands.
