There go- Yes, finish! There Finish

Is this drill for you?

For novice players (Level 2) who can dribble and make a layup and want to sell a drive with a quick pop before exploding to the rim - hoop needed, no partner.

Trains: first-step speed · explosiveness · finishing · ball-handling

In a game: The pop dribble sells the drive before it happens - the defender rocks back, and that half-second is the lane to the rim.

Needs a hoop for the finish.
