Partner Shooting
Two players, one ball. One shoots, the other rebounds and passes; after every shot the shooter sprints to a new spot he would shoot from in a game. Ten shots, then swap.

- Rebounder: a crisp pass to the shooter's pocket, not to his feet.
- Shoot only from spots you get in games.
- Shooter counts makes, rebounder counts shots.
