Description: 45° Finishes

Attacking across the midline is going to change your finishing angle. Try out these finishes!

In this finishing series we are attacking across the midline. Start on the left elbow and then finish on the right side of the rim. Your second set should be going the opposite direction.

Start on the left elbow and attack to the right side. The focus here is on finishing with the ball extended away from your frame. This makes it easier to avoid blocked shots.

45° Finishes - Extension Finish

You’re going to take one dribble and two steps. Jump early off of your ball side foot.

45° Finishes - 1st Step Finish

This footwork and finish is perfect for when you are unable to get to the rim due to a help-side defender stepping up.

Make sure you focus on going straight up and straight down to avoid a charge.

45° Finishes - Outside Inside Floater

Stop outside inside before pivoting back towards the middle of the floor. You are likely to have a defender close to your hip, so we are focusing on reaching away to create separation.

45° Finishes - Stride Stop to Extension Finish

Focus on stepping away from the rim to create separation. Focus more on squaring your elbow then squaring your shoulders.
