Ball Screen Defender Goes Under Re-Screen Basketball Drill

 

If the basketball player using the ball screen isn’t a great shooter, then there is a good chance that the defender will go under on the ball screen action. However, there is a way to make the defense pay for going under, even with a poor shooter.

When the defender goes under the ball screen, the big man can immediately turn around and re-screen them. This time the screen is even lower, so the not so good shot from the 3 point line becomes a much higher percentage 15-footer shot if the defender chooses to go under again. Reading the defense and making the correct read on the ball screen is important for any player that is going to handle the basketball in a game. This is a great basketball drill to teach you the basketball fundamentals of using a ball screen against this type of defense.
