⏱ 1:40

A full defensive footwork progression that chains multiple techniques together in one continuous rep: stance, defensive slide, a cross step, a rotation into help position, and finally a closeout, all called out and executed back to back. Meant to be run as a daily warm-up sequence, with additional steps (like a backdoor slide, a snap-recover, or a skip-pass close) layered in once the base sequence is second nature.

This drill comes from BreakthroughBBall.
