5 Line Shooting Drill (and Variations)
Shooting. There is no substitute. Embed repetition and competition within shooting drills.
This drill comes from HoopCoach.org.
In this drill, there are 5 'radians' along which players shoot. They suggest making consecutive shots at each 4 foot interval with the goal of completing each line (25 shots total) in two minutes. You cannot advance to the next line until you've completed the five consecutive shots in that line. Like most shooting drills, it works best with a rebounder.
Alternatives might include making five consecutive shots from each spot in a radian or taking shots from all twenty-five spots and seeing how many you make. I know how I would have played it...seeing how many shots it required to make all twenty-five.
