Big D

A big man basketball drill.

First get two players set up on wings of the key two to three steps away from the baseline, set the center up in front of one and have the other one with the basketball.

The object is the center turns takes quick steps and gets over to defend the shot or swat. Good for double teaming as well. As the center you need to take balanced steps not to big and not to small as you need to be able to get there and jump as well, try not to foul.

Enables big men to react quicker, helps with jumping, rejecting and taking a charge.

Variations - Add an extra defender and slowly build up to rotating one side to the other.
