Finishing School Drill

We work a lot in our program on finishing around the rim. Here is one of the drills we use that we call Curls. Players curl around the big block, catch and finish. We shoot 2-foot hooks/push shots, 1-foot hooks/push shots, shot fakes, step through shots and 2-foot fades. We also encourage our players to be creative - different arc, release points and targets. A big emphasis is for our players to follow through, not just with their shooting motion, but also their eyes by keeping them on the target through the release. We also add a defender to disrupt vision. Check out the drill here from the 2010 COBA Can-Am On-Court Basketball Coaching Clinic: Finishing School - Curls
