Reverse Reaction Basketball Rebounding Drill

 

Being great at rebounding the basketball requires you to have good reaction time. When you see the shot go up, you need to be able to quickly find your man and box him out. Once the basketball hits the rim, you need to react to which way it goes as quickly as you can and then track it down. Be able to quickly judge where the ball is going and then go get it.
