3 ball

A good warmup drill going over many of the aspects of the game.

Instructions

Only a halfcourt is needed. Make three lines at halfcourt, one on the left right and middle. There is one player under the basket on the left side of the lane, and one on the right. Both these players have a ball and so does the 1st player in the middle line. The middle line passes right or left, then they go through a three man weave, and when the player that started with the ball gets the ball back he shoots a layup. The other two run to the elbows and are passed the ball from the players under the basket. the players that passed the ball, close out on the 2 at the elbow who shoots a jumper. Then the players that shot get their rebound and go under the basket and the middle man passes the rebound from his layup back to the middle line. Repeat.

Variations

A drill much like this can be done full court with 5 balls…..

Tips

Make sure the players under the basket close out then box out the shooters before getting in line, and make the middle line pass to the opposite side after a few minutes.

Skills

Shooting, passing, layups, closing out.
