Scoring in basketball is very challenging at all levels, but if a player tries to KEEP IT SIMPLE, and master one basic layup at time, that player can develop into an effective scorer.

Objective: To be able to score consistently, efficiently, and in a variety of ways from the 5 main spots on the floor. 

Below are the 5 spots to attack the basket from

Left Baseline: Shot fake & Rip to the Hip

  1. Baseline Power: Baseline, jump stop, & power layup off 2 feet (can add a shot fake) 
  2. Baseline Front: right hand lay-up off one foot
  3. Baseline Reverse: right hand reverse lay-up 
  4. Baseline Reverse left hand: left hand reverse lay-up OPTIONAL

  2. Block Pull-up: Dribble to the block pull up jump shot
