Shooting drills with JJ: 5-shot close out

5 Shot Close-Out

Partner Positions
– Partner 1 stands directly under basket to rebound and pass to Partner 2
– Partner 2 stands at top of key and passes to shooter [you]
– Return to start position after every shot to receive pass from partner.

Drill
• Begin on wing behind 3-point line, performing dribbles to left side for all following drills
• Take one dribble; perform a runner
• Take one dribble; perform a pull-up
• Take two dribbles; perform a leaner off glass
• Take two dribbles; perform a step-back
• Take two dribbles; shot fake; then gather yourself and shoot
• Perform same shots to right side
• Repeat progression on opposite side of court

Redick’s Rave: “Maybe my defender’s running me off my shot, so I now have to make a choice. So am I going left or right? Am I going all the way? Am I pulling up? It’s a series of shots.”

Hey, JJ! Awesome video. Those are awesome shooting drills that we can all learn a lot from. I mean, you’re the best shooter like ever and I’m sure there’s a lot of people who want to shoot just like you! You’re an insanely amazing basketball player. You really need to be getting a LOT of playing time. And not to creep you out or anything, but you look freaking sexy in this vid haha. And, I want a close up of you so I can see you braces!! I still haven’t seen them yet! I also like the music in the video too. Thanks again for the video. I love you so much!

lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of LOVE,
Maggie
