Slow Square Shot Fake Attack Face Up Series Basketball Drill

Slow Square Shot Fake Attack Face Up Series Basketball Drill

 

As a player, if you prove that you can hit the 12-15 mid-post shot out of the triple threat position, you will be able to set up the shot fake and attack move. It is imperative to sell your shot fake for this move and make it look exactly the same as your regular shot before pulling it down and attacking.

Another big part of this move is the footwork. After you get the defender up off the ground, you need to make sure you are attacking the basket in a straight line. If you go to the side after the shot fake, you allow the defender to recover and challenge your shot. This is a great basketball drill that you can do with the entire team or by yourself because it doesn’t require anyone to rebound or pass the ball.
