Our good friend and NBA Shooting [Coach John Townsend](https://blog.drdishbasketball.com/author/john-townsend) demonstrates a great 3-point shooting drill called 2 & Out to work on streak shooting. Check out the full breakdown in the video below!

### 2 & Out

- The drill involves 5 spots around the three point line: corners, wings, and the top of the key.
- Players will start at a corner spot and the drill officially begins once they make a shot.
- From there, players will shoot at each spot until they miss two in a row.

Players should set a goal for how many shots they want to make each time they do this drill like 5 makes at each spot. The record for this drill was set by [ John Lucas III](https://www.basketball-reference.com/players/l/lucasjo02.html) when he played for the Toronto Raptors with a score of 268 makes.
