Jordan McCabe claims that this particular basketball workout is what made him a division 1 basketball player. As an inspiring basketball player it is always important to do drills and workouts. A lot of kids growing up playing in parks or with their friends with never really training and doing drills. And yet this may help them make their middle school, or even high school basketball team. However without extreme height and athleticism without being very skilled in the game of basketball it is hard to make it to the next level. So take notes, and apply to your workout routine. If you don’t have a basketball workout routine and you desire to play basketball at the next level wherever that my be; it is time do develop your routine today.

In a recent Instagram post LeBron James shared a few video clips with him training and doing basketball drills with his 2 sons: Bronny and Bryce. It is just an amazing thing to see as LeBron is approaching his 20th season in the NBA, he ready to make the claims that he is STILL the King of the NBA. Though having is own personal ambitions James still finds time to train with his sons as well as attend many of their AAU and Summer League Games.

The first drill demonstrated by all 3 is a dribble hand from the left wing, between the legs going to the left side, 2 dribbles and a dunk. By the way Bronny is looking extra springy.

The next drill demonstrated by Bronny and Bryce is a jab step to the right, one dribble to the right, behind the back to the left, step back jumpshot.

The next drill is a variation of the previous drill, except hitting the step back, Bronny spins back left after the behind the back for a swooping layup to the right.

The final drill demonstrated in the post was a dribble hand off from the left wing, 2 dribbles to the right to the free throw line for a jumpshot.

See all the drills demonstrated below:

In addition it is important to do this without looking down and watching the ball.

If practicing this drill I would have the ball player go up the court with one hand, and using the opposite hands on the way back.

1-3 reps

Drill Difficulty level 6: Intermediate

In today’s video, I give you the three shooting drills that are probably killing your chances of becoming an elite shooter! By making sure you are avoiding these killer shooting mistakes you are automatically going to give yourself a better opportunity to increase your overall shooting percentage. By implementing these tips into your game you can almost immediately skyrocket your shooting!
My first drill that you should not do is one hand form shooting! I dive in and explain the reasoning behind why practicing a segmented shot can be extremely detrimental
to your shooting fluidity. I also give you some alternative drills you can use that actually promote one motion shooting.
My second drill I want you to avoid is elbow to elbow shooting! This drills is unfortunately just not very realistic to any in game shot you will actually get. In your training focus on training shots that you actually get in live game situations!
The last shooting drills you should try to avoid is casual shooting. When you are training your shot it’s super important to play at game speed. Selling yourself short by going half speed can kill your shot in the long run!

Lastly Confidence is something we see in ALL of the great shooter’s the best way to make sure you are a confident shooter is to make sure your shotmechanics are dialed in! So avoid these three killer shooting mistakes, and I promise you will become a lights out shooter in no time!

Imagine you are driving toward the basket, but a bigger defender is guarding the basket. You are going to need illusiveness to be able to score. In this video I share to unstoppable moves when perfected: the Euro Step Fadeaway, and the Driving Step Back.

The first drill demonstrated in this video is a simple warm up drill for form shooting. Standing about 1 foot away from the center of the basket, with 1 hand make 20 shots.

The warmup demonstrated in this video is 20 free throws. Again focus on having good form so when you get into the drills you are in a good rhythm.

The next part of the drill is when we get into the actual moves. The first move is a eurostep fadeaway. Instead of taking an outward step then stepping towards the goal, we are making our first step inward toward the goal or opponent then stepping out and fading away off of 1 foot. Make sure you are making your initial step toward your defender hard enough that you get enough space to get your shot off, and not have to rush. Do this a minimum of 15 makes on each side of the basket, to as many as needed to master this move. Every undersized guard should have this move in their bag; Chris Paul utilizes this move with excellence.

The next move we will practice in this video is the side step. The side step has a similar motion as the previous move however instead of landing on 1 foot after your initial jab toward the basket, you will land on 2 feet. This move is done a little further away from the basket than the Euro Fadeaway. This is more of a mid range move while the euro fadeaway is done a little closer to the basket: right outside of the paint.

The final move demonstrated in this video is the stepback. Made famous by James Harden, but really was also one of Allen Iverson’s most used moves as well in the previous era. The step back can be used from any part of the court. The main thing to focus on when utilizing a step back is angles. One of the best angles to use the step back, though not demonstrated in this video is coming from the wing. This is very important move for guards especially undersized guards. Allen Iverson and Kyrie Irving create total chaos for the defense by penetrating the lane, getting in front of the basket, and hitting the the D, with a step back around 9-10 feet in front of the goal. The ideal placement is between the free-throw line and the goal. This is a much higher percentage shot than a stepback 3 pointer which was demonstrated in this video.
