Basketball Drills: Read & React Shooting Drill with Coach Tony Miller

Written by Tony Miller | Dec 18, 2020 3:57:00 PM

In Coach Tony Miller's 7th Dr. Dish Drill of the week, he provides a great explanation of a "read and react" shooting drill. Check out the full breakdown below!

This next drill has two purposes. The first is to work on making the extra pass. If you want to make it more game-like, add a defender to quickly close out to Player 1. On the closeout, Player 1 should make a “one up” pass to Player 2 for the shot. 

Check out the video breakdown below!

 

Player 1 passes the to player 2 for a shot. On the second pass from the Dish, Player 1 should catch and drive middle. Player 2 will slide from the wing to the slot. Player 1 passes to Player 2, who then shoots on the catch. After the shot, the two players switch places.
