One-on-One Defense, One Pass Away Drill

By: PlaySportsTV Basketball over 4 years ago

This basketball drill focuses on defending the man one pass away from the basketball. This is a one-on-one drill where the defender is trying to get in the passing lane between the basketball and the offensive player. The defender always wants to stay between the ball and the basket, and between the basket and his man. This is known as the defensive triangle. The offensive player is trying to get open while the defender tries to force the man further outside the basket than he is comfortable.
