Put the defense on their heels with this proven successful transition attack.

In this on-court demonstration, BYU Head Coach Dave Rose teaches you how he attacks opposing defenses in transition. Using this powerful system, the Cougars regularly rank amongst the top scoring teams in the nation.

Transition Offense Drills
Coach Rose gets his team to play at a very fast pace, putting the defense on their heels in transition. He begins his practices with a simple 3-man weave drill getting his team acclimated to the fast pace and getting shots off at the high speed and then builds on the weave with a 3-on-2 to 2-on-1 drill. Also included is his favorite drill (which he will use for up to 30 minutes of practice time) the "Nugget Drill." This progression style transition drill creates a numbered break for the offense each time down the floor.

BYU's "Basic" Transition Offense
The "Basic" Transition Offense provides various options on the break including open 3-point looks, post-ups, and cutters to the rim. In his offensive attack, Rose uses a 4-out 1-in set with the goal of getting the ball into the post for a high-percentage shot attempt. Rose also covers how to counter intense pressureusing dribble entries and pressure releases.
