Coach [Tony Miller](https://www.instagram.com/coach.miller/) demonstrates a simple warmup that basketball players can add to their routine. See it in action below! 

During individual basketball training workouts, I like to add some variation into basic drills as part of player’s warmups. Incorporating a little ball handling allows us to work on multiple skills while maximizing our time. Instead of the normal 5 spot shooting at the short corners, wings, and nail, we’ll take three shots at each spot with some sort of change-of-hand dribbling move on each pass out.

### Three Shot Spot Shooting with Ball handling

- First pass: right to left, left to right, then shot
- Second pass: straight cross right to left, left to right, then shot
- Third pass: left to right, right to left, then shot
