I got waaaaay better at floaters. They were my worst shot and now they’re probably my main

Kaysen

That was a really good workout. I have a question on the euro step, however. Should you change which hand you shoot with depending on what foot you end up jumping off of?

Simon

Awesome. Floaters are my specialty, and now I’m going to use it even more.

Today we are focused on floaters.  Floaters are crucial in todays game of basketball.  With so many athletic good defenders at the rim it’s important to be able to I get the ball up in the air and over the shot blockers with great touch.  This is where floaters come in. We will work on 5 different kinds of floaters now!

Starting off here we will do a regular one footed floater off of our leg leg with our right hand.  A few keys are to have good knee drive up, extend your who body including your arm toward the basket, and lift that ball in the air over the defender!

Set 1- Left Leg Right Hand

We now will shoot this floater with our left hand.   I still want good knee drive up and lift the ball over the defender.  This is a very delicate shot.  Focus on your touch

Set 2- Right Leg Left Hand

Now we will focus on getting into your floater off two feet.  Drive off of both feet and power up towards the basketball.  This will likely be more of a push shot and need great touch to master this shot.  Again 20 makes from the 5 spots on the key (both corners, both wings, top)

Set 3- Two Feet Right Hand

You have to be able to shoot 2 footed floaters with both hands.  It makes you lethal in the paint. It’s hard to shoot with your off hand whether it is your right or left hand.  But focus on footwork first, then a great drive and extension towards the basket, and just float it up over the defender.

Set 4- Two Feet Left Hand

Now we will use our eurostep to get around our defender to get into our floater.  This is a great move when someone is sliding over to take a charge.  Just move around them and get off your floater.  Same form as we have been doing off every leg and use both hands

Set 5- Euro Step Floater

It was a pretty good workout. A bit tricky to do without a partner, but a wall works ok. Also, are we supposed to make 100 or just attempts 100?

I felt and shot much better today. After the last set, I finished up with the conditioning drill you posted today. It was a good way to finish off my workout.

Great workout! A little difficult to do without a defender and screener, but still great!

It was fun! I’m definitely getting the hang of the hesitation step, and I really like it.

That was awesome. Really great conditioning and transition work. I struggled a little with the hesitation shot, but for my first time working on it in this situation, it wasn’t too big of a deal.
