Most programs are good if you are consistent in following them. This program is really good if you want to get to another level...good luck

Get 3 people and go play 21 on a half court. This is one of the fastest ways to get quick, live, high defensive pressure repetitions in, and helps to teach natural move execution rather than having to premeditate every move you do first.

Gather and scoop

Gather and shoot

For shooting do a bunch of form shooting around the rim and at midrange do a bunch of no jump jump shots it will help your jumper be more smooth and less choppy. Then getting a ton of reps in helps but change up the reps don’t do the exact same thing every time. Do off the dribble and catch and shoot shots. Also for catching and shooting make the pass coming to you be a bad pass so it’s more game like.

For dribbling become really good at change of pace also do a bunch of variations of two ball dribbling. Freestyle dribbling for 5 minutes straight also helps at becoming more shift. Last thing I’d say off the top of my head for dribbling is learn how to do 5-6 moves really well because everything is a read and react so you expect your first move to work but say they turn their body on your cross then do a btb wrap around and cross their body again because everything is a counter to something else

For finishing Mikans are a basic drill but you can make them harder by scooting farther out and something that helps is jump from somewhere like the free throw line and finish before hitting the ground helps with soft touch also get really good at the extended finish

And lastly some YouTubers I’d recommend Hennen Workouts Basketball, By Any Means Basketball, and The Mid Range are all great channels

Literally just shoot a bunch, thats how you get good. You dont have to do anything fancy

What you should also do is record a video of all your skills. Then it's easier for us to give you feedback on what needs to improve

11 man fast break.

Focus on your shooting. Getting the ball in the basket is what counts. So I suggest doing around the world. Which consists of you shooting from 5 spots outside the 3pt line. Each spot shoot be 5 shots and at the end you do your percentage out of 25. You do that for 5 sets, and your shot will improve. Dribbling and getting to the basket will become easier because defenses have to stop your outside shot.

It’s sounds like you are pretty new (or terrible!) OP, so the biggest t hing is getting a feel for the ball. Your hands should miss the ball when it’s not there.

I recommend what /u/solo_824 said, but especially the Mikan drill. You get to practice rebounding, jumping, left hand, right hand, and it is the easiest drill to do solo.

start with the basics. form shooting, stationary handles, mikan drill. and their progressions as they become easier

Shooting is rep rep rep. Making contact layups is about strength, touch and being in a game scenario. Defense lol man nobody can help lazy defense. It’s a thing where you gotta WANT to play defense.

as long as your shooting form is good you will see the improvement as you keep shooting. if you have enough practice time i would recommend in the shooting practice first start from the right underneath of the rim and take nothing but net shots like 50 times and one step back after each cycle until the 3pt line. if you have a shooting partner its so much easier to practice together. Also not only fixed shots but you should practice dynamic moving shot with your mate as he pass the ball to you.

sorry for bad english

A few exercises I would recommend

5 spot shooting - making 10 shots from 5 spots, wing elbow, freethrow line, opposite elbow & wing. Once you get comfortable challenge yourself by completing the full things in (5mins). Progression can be 10 mids & 5 3's

4321 - (2mins) - make 4 shots from the wing, 3 shots from elbow, 2 shots from the freethrow line & 1 3pt shot from the top. After every shot you run to the half court & back. Good cardio & working on game shots from game spots as well.

Hope that was of value. Feel free to hit me up on IG @Coach_dee7 if you want any further help. Happy to help when I can. Keep getting better!!

i think shooting needs to be worked on outside of practice (and in the off season). They need to be shooting hundreds of shots a day and there isnt time in practice. Make homework to give to each player to do a certain number of makes of each kind of shot (static and driving), as well as dribbling and driving with the left hand.

coach Jerry petitouge short video.Also I reccomend Tom Norlands Swish video.

We started every practice with this…

3 ft in front of the rim, can only use one hand, gotta make 5 straight without hitting the rim. Then do the same at 6 ft. At 9 ft ball can hit the rim. Same for 12 ft. 15 ft is the free throw line, they can shoot normal free throw. After they make 5 straight free throws, they can shoot from anywhere.

I give them 15 minutes at the start of practice to finish this. The furthest they make it during the drill is the furthest they are allowed to shoot the rest of practice.

The one hand shooting really makes them develop proper form. I like that it adds a little pressure, especially once they make 4 in a row. And it keeps kids that have no business more than a foot outside the paint from thinking they’re Steph Curry.

Fortunately my gym had 8 goals so it was manageable. I understand most coaches don’t have this luxury.

A lot of form shooting. Don't do them 1-handed. Start 6 feet out with both hands. Idk who invented one hand form shooting but they're off their rocker

It takes a long time to get better shooting. Won't happen overnight.

The Mikan drill. Great for footwork and used both hands.

Individual workout - Steve Nash 20 min workout https://youtu.be/0xHw0o9ic0s?si=_a127d1-mv28Bi9e Team/group workout - too many to mention, but get in lots of footwork; pick & roll, and positional movement/shots Bought that video 10-15 yrs ago for my boys. Now it's online for free.

Not a drill I did but a drill I stopped doing which helped my shooting more than anything - shooting against a wall. When I dumped that my consistency went way up.

This one was a game changer for me.

I think good footwork when receiving a pass. Ball in the air foot in the air. Second step into triple threat. Those two things make any player more dangerous

To me the best drills have 3 things: An opponent, cardio, and pressure.

King of The Court is by FAR my favorite. Its 1v1 but with rotating opponents. The only way to get on offense is to get a stop on defense.

Also these solo drills:

1. "Arcade" Score as many points as you can in 2 mins while alternating lays (1pt), middy (2pts), 3ball (3pts). If you don't beat your previous score, do it again.

2. "Rally" You're down by 10 pts. Each shot you make cuts into the lead. Each shot you miss extends the lead by one point. Play until you take the lead.

Casually dribble in place 5 times, letting the ball bounce up to your waist. Then dribble hard 5 times only letting the ball come up to your knees. Do this with both hands and then incorporate walking and jogging as you get more comfortable. You really want to control the ball and focus on “pushing” it down as opposed to letting it bounce back up to your hand

Whatever you do, do not try to memorize some combos. Get as good as you can at controlling the ball and let the defense dictate where you go with it.

I improved my shot percentage significantly by playing around the world by myself. Once i finished it fairly quickly i played it again but i couldent advance til next stage until i hit 3 in a row on each stage, then 5. Also i always forced myself to do a jump shot, not just shot from where im standing

Start with a ball, knees bent, try not to look at the ball.

Dribble four times with your right/ then cross to your left/ then four times with you left/cross to your right and keep doing that for a minute.

Then repeat the same drill only this time three to the right/cross/ three to the left

Repeat again for two and one

Hard to simulate finishing through contact. If that is a weakness in your game you need to get one of your boys to stand at the rim and hack the shit out of you

Mikan drill
