Coaching notes

Initial warm-up drill with progressive difficulty: close range, three-point, and moving backwards. Focuses on late two-hand catch, stabilization, and athletic lift.

Key points

Put two hands on the ball as late as possible in the release.
Stabilize the release even with a weird pick-up.
Elevate more to buy time for stabilization – jump higher.
On backwards shots, avoid leaning back; maintain forward weight distribution.

Common mistakes

Weight distribution tends to lean back when shooting moving backwards.
