Xavier’s Sean Miller offers excellent instruction to improve your in-season and off-season skill-development programs. Each drill and skill that the Coach Miller locks in on provides an innovative way for you to develop your team across all positions.   

Dribbling, Passing

Coach Miller begins with a dribbling routine that builds multiple ball-handling skills while also conditioning your players (and utilizes the three-point line) in unique and innovative ways so that you can perform this routine on both ends of the floor. 

Continuing with the skill development, Coach Miller then showcases a workout that improves each player’s strengths as a passer.  All of the ball handling and passing drills are high energy and ideal for all positions and all skill levels. 

Pressure, Pivoting, and Passing

Coach Miller explains details of a terrific ‘Man-In-the-Middle Pressure Defense Drill’ – which actually works as a dual-purpose drill that also builds your players’ pivoting and passing simultaneously. Miller ends with his ‘Two-Feet Scoring Progression’ which is a dynamic, skills workout that is extremely detailed and worth the purchase of this video by itself – breaking down multiple moves your players can use off of two feet to score in the lane and around opposing defenders. 

Each move in the ‘Two-Feet Scoring Progression’ is shown in detail, highlighting key moves such as ‘step-through,’ the ‘pro-hop,’ the ‘Jimmy Butler,’ just to name a few.  This is an ideal progression that can be implemented at many levels.

Coach Miller ends with the ‘Pinball Drill’  - emphasizing ball movement and quick passing on the perimeter to attack the basket and create scoring opportunities. Miller adds a competitive twist to end the drill when a chosen amount of points are scored. 

If you are looking for ways to build upon your player skill-development components in your practices, either on a day-to-day or in-season basis – or even as an off-season training approach – then this is a must-own video! 

Customer Rating: 5 Out of 5 Stars. ‘Coach Miller does a fantastic job explaining all of his player development drills. The Two Feet Progression is really good and I know my players will love the Three-Point-Line Dribbling workout. Another masterpiece by Coach Miller!’
