16 Ways to 'Own the Paint'

with Kevin Sutton,
Montverde Academy (FL) Head Basketball Coach;
NIKE Skill Academy Instructor

Coach Sutton shares 16 unique drills to help your team 'own the paint.' Terminology such as mini land, midline, post across, foot fight, chin and check, pound dribble and run for scores are defined. Chairs are used in many drills and dictate the placement of the ball. Leverage is a skill that is demonstrated with one-on-one play in the paint. Several drills combine leverage with scoring in the post. A series of "Chuck" drills adds a physical element to each drill. Chairs are moved away from the lane to introduce work on the mini-post and midline. Sutton also demonstrates drills that work on the deep post up, foot quickness, pivoting, shooting, posting up and various offensive post moves. Objectives for one-on-one play are simulating game situations and developing competitiveness. All of the drills in this presentation develop the parts that make a total post player!
