A shot after an offensive rebound is more effective than one after a change of possession.
🔹 How to improve offensive rebounding? 📍 Use a triangle setup for better positioning. 📍 Attack the boards with three players—the most efficient strategy.
🔹 Shot distance affects where the rebound will land: ✅ Close-range shots → Near the rim and on the shooter’s side. ✅ Mid-range shots → It depends on the shot angle. ✅ Long-range shots → A long rebound, often on the opposite side. 🔹 Offensive rebounds = more points and more free throws
The solution? CLA-based shooting training. 🔄 This approach introduces variability, decision-making, and defensive pressure to simulate real in-game conditions.
🚨 Shooting drills don’t have to be robotic! 🚨 Many players spend hours taking uncontested shots from the same spot with perfect form—but struggle in real games. Why? Because no two shots in a game are ever the same. 🎯🏀
🔹 Drill: "3v3 Shooting Battle" 🔹 ✅ 2 teams of 3 (2 shooters + 1 rebounder). ✅ Shooters rotate after every shot. ✅ Rebounders contest shots to add defensive pressure. ✅ Players can dribble & pass to find better shots but they need to be out of the 3-point line. ✅ First team to make 5 threes wins.
Dribble, pass, and shoot—but no catches inside the 3-point line! Rotate roles so everyone plays defense twice. Perfect for having an high energy task with a lot of shots and quick decissions. 💪
