3 Ways to Finish at the Rim
To be an effective playmaker, your players must be able to finish at the rim.
PGC Director Sam Allen brings you the “3-part Floater” drill to add options to your arsenal.
Key Aspect:
These finishes require players come to a controlled stop, on two feet. This control will allow them to change their attack and take advantage of whatever the defense gives them.
The three finishes are:
- A floater
- A pivot out into a shot
- A pivot out with a shot fake and step through
