Agility and Shooting Drill for Serious Hoopsters~

This video shows an agility drill and shooting drill that any serious basketball player could incorporate into their workout. UCLA's Jrue Holliday is actually doing the workout at the Sacramento Kings training facility.

At :36, Holiday does a standard box agility test where he shuffles, sprints and backpedals around the cones. Since this agility drill can easily be set up and measured, it's very popular. Coaches can compare players times and evaluate improvement.


The shooting drill is a two-spot shooting drill, basically a "catch and shoot" off the curl & then off a flare (1:07). then a one dribble pull up jumper.
At 1:07, he does a standard two-spot shooting drill, shooting off the curl and then off a flare. At about 1:54, he moves to one-dribble pull-up jump shots.

Having a purpose when you work out improves your personal time management, and allows you to maximize the time you allot for improving your game.

Zig Ziglar, one of the most popular motivation guru's, had a great quote that I made my 5th grade Tulsa Celtics memorize.

He said:
"The HARDER you are on yourself,,,,, the EASIER Life is,,,, On you!!!"
