Scoring Off Screens (Drills)

One key to offensive production is CREATING SEPARATION. Wes Kosel, one of the most prolific 'sharers' in the basketball community, shares PTP (Pick the picker), also known as STS (screen-the-screener) actions here

But the key to great offense isn't just separation, it's FINISHING. 

Here's a staged drill we use to simulate shooting off screens. 



With young players we see gradual improvement in shooting UNTIL passive (hands up) defense is added, affecting shooter TARGETING. 



Players can also use the "Nutmeg Drill" to improve targeting.
