2 on 2 Help and Recover

Directions:

1.  There are two offensive players and two defensive players

2. x1 starts at a disadvantage next to #1

3. #1 drives

4. #2 has to help and recover

5. Either do this as "jumps" or go live on the first dribble

Other Teaching Points:

• Help should come with your inside foot - do not turn your back to your man to help on the drive

• Do not overcommit to the help if the player guarding the ball handler does not need it

• Jump to the ball on the pass

• Communicate all of your defensive actions

• Utilize proper closeout technique and angles of approach
