Whistle Drill

A live 5-on-5 scramble drill: play runs normally until the coach blows a whistle, at which point the ball handler sets the ball down, and neither that ball handler's defender nor anyone already guarding them is allowed to pick it up — a different defender has to recognize the gap and step in while the whole defense re-sorts who they're guarding. A pure communication and scramble drill for handling chaotic, broken-defense situations.
