A defender is guarding you closely, and you’ve already picked up your dribble. What are your best options to avoid a turnover, and why?
You’re on a fast break with one defender between you and the basket. Describe the factors you would consider when deciding whether to pass, shoot, or slow down the play.
Your team is down by 1 point with 10 seconds left and you have the ball at the top of the key. What strategy would you use to get a high-percentage shot? Explain your reasoning.
During a fast break, you drive toward the basket at full speed. As you go up for a layup, a defender steps in front of you and establishes position outside the restricted area. You collide with them and the referee calls an offensive foul on you.
You notice the opposing team is repeatedly getting offensive rebounds. What adjustments can you and your team make to fix this problem?
