    Good basketball practice drills like this one keep severl players active and working on fundamental development

    Basketball Practice Drills Purpose: Executing the primary fast break with a focus on scoring while there is still a numbers advantage.

    Organization:  2 teams of at least 5 players.
    1 team begins on offense bringing the ball up the floor with a 3 on 2 advantage.
    Each team stands out of bounds near half-court on either side of the court to begin the drill.
    Procedure:

    • The offense advances the ball up the floor 3 on 3.
    • When the ball crosses half court a trailing defender enters the action. He must sprint to the half-court circle before entering the defense.   This emulates a fast-break game situation by giving the offense a brief period of time where they have a numbers advantage to score on the primary fast break.
    • Two  sidelined members of the offensive team  also sprint to the midcourt circle as the ball crosses halfcourt then go to the opposite basket and prepare to be the first 2 defenders in the 3 on 2 when the ball comes back down the floor.
    • Play continues until the offense scores or the defense gets a steal or a rebound.
    • When the defensive team recover possession, the start a 3-man fast break of their own down to the other end of the floor Play continues in this manner with a 3rd defensive trailer entering the action as the offense advances the ball  past halfcourt.
    • This can be a competitive drill  - by counting the points scored for both teams, declaring a winner, and issuing consequences for the losing team.
