4 Man Cover Drill

This drill comes from former Michigan and NBA coach John Beilein. It was found in the FastModel Plays and Drills Library. The purpose of this drill is to work on transition offense and defense.

Drill starts with a Free Throw. In the diagram X4 is the free throw shooter. See the positioning of the other “X”players.

If the free throw is missed, the player “4” rebounds the ball and it is passed down the floor for a layup as quickly as possible.

Once 3 shoots the layup, every other player from the rebounding team has to touch the lane, then sprint back to stop the ball in conversion from the “X” team and protect the lane. Coach outlets the ball to x1 to begin the conversion portion of the drill.
