Crash and Putback

The coach shoots from one wing. The player on the weak side, where most misses land, crashes around a dummy that stands in for the defender boxing out, takes the ball at its highest point and scores right back up without bringing it down.

Coaching points

  • Most misses come off on the weak side: crash from there every time.
  • Move before the defender can make contact: fake one way, go the other.
  • Swim or rip past the box-out; get a foot and a shoulder in front of him.
  • Catch high, two hands, and score on the way up without bringing it down.

Phase by phase

  1. PC

    1Phase 1

    Shot goes up: don't watch it, move. Take a step to the middle to sell it, then swim past the dummy on the baseline side to get your body in front of it.

    • C shoots
    • P cuts to the right block
  2. PC

    2Phase 2

    Catch it high with two hands and go straight back up, off two feet and strong off the glass. No dribble, no bringing the ball down.

    • P shoots
  3. PC

    3Phase 3

    Back out to the elbow for the next ball. Alternate the move around the dummy: swim one rep, spin off it the next.

    • P cuts to the right elbow

Variations

  • A live defender boxes out instead of the dummy.
  • Tip it back in instead of catching it.
  • 2-on-2 crash: coach shoots, both sides fight for it, rebounders score or outlet.

Run it, tilt it, change it to fit your practice.
