Villanova Perimeter Actions via Herb on Hoops

Herb Welling of the Facebook Group 'Herb on Hoops' requested a breakdown of Villanova perimeter actions (with diagrams when appropriate). 

0:05 Jump stop series with outside hand layup from corner
0:20 Layup from top with jump stop and lefthanded finish (players finish with either hand)
0:53 Note shot fake without bringing the ball above head (limits traveling calls)
1:30 Floater series (off jump stop)

Possible drill (use multiple baskets) into jump stop with floater. One to two dribbles...

1:57 Pullup series (midrange jumpers) 

2:10 Pullup off pump fake (could use same layout as above) 

2:27 Pivot series (initially R foot, front pivot) then L foot, front pivot. Players create space off the pivot. 

3:15 Penetrate and pitch off jump stop. Shows a variety of scenarios ranging from 3 point shots to back cuts. 

4:36 Shot fake into driving layup. 

Shot fake, max two dribbles with ball side and reverse layup practice (ideally) 

6:18 Shot fake into penetrate and pitch. 

7:36 Spectacular "inside-outside-inside" action for layup. 

8:35 Shot fake into pullups. 

9:50 Pump fake, jump stop, floater. 

The excellence of execution involves:
- superior footwork and balance, including pivoting (front 360 pivots into shots or passes)
- a variety of "finishes" including layups, floaters, midrange shots, and assists
- composite moves including initiating shot fakes 
- unselfish play, under control
