About This Play/Drill

Motion Breakdowns:

2/0 downscreen with a coach is the first drill used in teaching the timing of downscreens. Coach is on left slot with a basketball. Screener has a ball on right slot. Player on the wing (2) will be receiving downscreen.

Drill begins with a pass to the coach from screener. (Coach briefly has two basketballs)

  • Screener must basket cut by stepping hard with near foot (you want the defense to jump ball side so you have clear path and screening angle.)
  • Cutter begins "walking the arc" to set up cut.
  • Screener jump stops into the screen.
  • TALK! "Joey! Joey! Downscreen"
  • Cutter excutes either curl, back, out or straight cut! TALK! "Curl! curl! Curl!"
  • RULE: if the cutter makes an inside cut, the screener makes an outside cut and vice versa! (concept of second cutters)
  • Coach passes first to cutter then to screener. 

Work drill on both sides of the floor. If you run motion these are your basic shooting drills! These are your game shots, from game spots at game speed!
