3 Man Cut

This drill deals with teaching players how to set a screen, have a person cut off the screen, and passing the ball to the shooter. You work on having a player curl off a screen, cut back door, and hitting the screening when he rolls.

Instructions

Start with line # 1 in the baseline corner, line # 2 at the hash mark and line # 3 at the opposite hash mark.
Line 1 passes to line 2 who passes right back and goes to set a screen for the man at line 3 at the top of the key. While the passing is going on, the man on line 3 is bring his man below the line of the screen (top of key) and running a shoulder to shoulder curl off the screen from 2 to the basket where 1 will pass him the ball for a lay-up. The screener (2) will open to the ball and get the rebound. The man on line 1 goes to line 2, line 2 goes to line 3 and line 3 goes to line 1.
This can be done with 3 cutting back door off the screen, 2 opening to the ball and receiving it for a shot or a dump down to 3. You can use bounce, chest, or hook passes to work on passing.

Tips

• Make sure legal screens are being set and that the screener opens to the ball.
• Stress the importance of good passing so the shooter will be able to catch and shoot right away.
