Start at the elbow, space laterally, attack toward the baseline with a 1-dribble 2-step gather, and finish with a quick-release floater high off the glass for 5 makes from each elbow.

Key points

  • Get the ball out of your hands quickly to evade shot blockers
  • Maintain body control playing off two feet

Common mistakes

Rushing downhill directly under the backboard with no angle to finish.
