Description: Transition 3 workout

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

Caitlyn

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.

I love transition shots.  I have really tried to master this type of shooting to give myself a great advantage in transition.  We will work on four different ways to get into your shot.  These can be tiring especially towards the end of shooting over 100 makes.  Everything will be started at half court to get into your shot.  Make sure as you move forward you use your legs to get your shot to the basket!

When doing transition 3s you want to focus on a few things.  Left right footwork on the right side, squaring your shoulders to the basket, and falling a little bit forward on your shot. This will give you more range and keep your shot consistent in transition

Set 1- Catch and shoot

I love this shot.  It’s a shot I have tried to master my whole life.  It’s so effective in transition if you can make it.  Keys are to dribble up fast, get into your correct footwork, square you keep shoulders, and fall forward when you shoot.  Then it’s about repetition.  We do that here today!

Set 2- Dribble into 3

This will be a quicker dribble into your shot.  You pound the ball hard once, and rise up in to your jumper.  Making sure you set up your defender to get off the handoff cleanly, then by taking one more dribble you can gain more space to get into your shot!  25 makes from mid range and three on both wings.

Set 3- Transition 3 one dribble

Now in transition we come down and hesitate before we shot.  The defender had done a good job stopping you in transition so now you give them a hesitation to make them think what you will do next.  Use your feet, shoulders, and eyes to sell your hesitation and then quick feet and hands into your shot!

Set 4- Hesitation transition 3

To be able to pull back on a dime in transition is hard to do. You need strength, balance, and good footwork to get yourself back into your shot and to have the strength to get the ball there. That being said defenders can’t guard it if done properly. Hard plants after going downhill!

Set 5- Pull back 3

A simple skip step can really make a defender freeze.  It’s important to get good rhythm on your skip and then change pace either into your shot or past your defender.  It’s a powerful set up move for whatever you choose to do next.

Set 6- Skip step

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.

One Day Floater workout

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.

One Day Catch and Shoot Workout

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