2 Minute Lesson: How Movement Kills Defense - Kelly Oubre

Goal: briefly emphasize the value of movement offensively.
Time commitment: maximum 2 minutes 

We preach to our young players, "movement kills defenses." Ball movement and player movement challenge even assiduous defenders. 

@NBA_Rundown shares illustrative clips.
"The ball is a camera." Relocate to allow the camera to see you. 

In the beginning of the clip, Oubre SINKS to the CORNER on the baseline drive. This affords him the shorter 3 point shot 'below the break'. Although he has increased his 3-point shooting to 36.5%, he misses. Washington gets the rebound, and he spaces to the perimeter. On the following ball reversal and second baseline drive, he stays active, drifting into the lane for a slam.
