This is a great drill to practice getting back in the play after getting beat. It also builds the offensive skills of speed dribbling and finishing under control while going full speed.

Details
- 2 defenders start on the elbow.
- One offensive player is under the rim with a ball and the other is at the top of the key.
- The drill begins when 2 passes to 1 (2 is then out of the drill). 1 receives the pass and speed dribbles toward the other basket to score.
- X1 & X2 sprint on the pass and chase 1. Their goal is to tip the ball away from behind before 1 can score a layup.
- To minimize fouls, only the defender on the ball side should be attempting to tip.
(Diagram 1)
- Tip: Only the player on the ball side should attempt to tip the ball. The player on the other side should sprint alongside the ball handler and be ready to tip if the ball comes back to that side.
