In this workout we are focusing on partial stops (don’t worry! I’ll explain what that means) and attack & retreat situations.

Remember to do one set going each way!

When attacking the rim we have to be aware of secondary (help) defenders. If you get cut off it can be beneficial to bounce out to space. This can create gaps as the help defense go back to guarding their player.

Attack & Retreat

We are now looking to make a second decision after retreating. We want to read the angle of the defender’s closeout. If they close out to the ball-side of our frame, we crossover￼￼

Attack & Retreat // Crossover

Think about this action as a shot fake while maintaining your dribble.

Effective shot fakes involve getting your feet under your hips and lifting your eyes to the rim. If you can sell shot, you are going to be able to get into a secondary attack.

Come to a complete stop before continuing in your attack.￼￼￼

Partial Stop

Similar to the previous movement, we are now simulating that we don’t have space to get to the rim and/or our defender is still somewhat in front of us.

Now we look to bounce off and get to space laterally for a jumper.

Partial Stop // Bounce Off

Start around NBA/WNBA range. 

Get to a quick stop and then get out. Get to a floater.

I encourage players to shoot floaters with their dominant hand whenever possible.

Partial Stop // Floater

Get to your stop and peek your eyes to the rim to sell shot. If the defense continues to slide, crossover and get to a finish.

Partial Stop // Turn Cross

Session 2: Stops & Footwork

Still seeing progress throughout the workout. Not to mention the translation into games

After repping out the pickup drill multiple times, this feels much more fluid.

Loved it. Been doing it for four weeks now and tracking progress alongside it really helps me stay motivated. Seeing improvement is addicting.
