Is this drill for you?
For novice shooters (Level 2) building an off-the-dribble pull-up - between-the-legs setups into jumpers from the line, wings, and corners.
The ladder: Free-throw-line pull-ups with each hand first, then moving jumpers, then wing and corner step-backs.
Variations: Every spot goes right and left.
In a game: Pull-ups off a live dribble from five spots cover most of the looks a guard creates in a game.
40 minutes; 10-rep sets per spot.
