My eight year-old granddaughter is starting to learn basketball. This post is for my son helping her.
Challenge yourself to shoot consistently with good form and establish "personal bests" in percentage with time constraints.
I've shared this many times. Villanova 'Get 50' is a great warm up.
Young players should become proficient shooting close to the basket and then begin to extend range. Eldon Campbell warmup.
If you need to shoot from 6-8 feet, that's not a problem.
Curry warmup. For young players, start close and take one step back. Make 3 from each spot and move back.
Constraints in terms of time add pressure which is inevitable in game play. "Winners are trackers." Personal bests are goals.
Shooting under fatiguing conditions also develops shooters. Shoot free throws in-between rounds to practice and get a breather.

Lagniappe 2. Study video regularly. Every top player is a student of the game.
Legendary Coach Obradovic always has one of the best offenses. His teams are well coached in their spacing and 0.5 decision making. Here are a few clips of Partizan last season. Multiple high PNR's with off ball action. pic.twitter.com/RSwc6npNXR
