@samsinger2 and @sdomingo31 attack this court conditioning drill, I like to use as a finisher to our individual workouts. They must make a minimum of two moves (they can do whatever they like, they just can’t do the same move 2 reps in a row). You can have them go versus a timer or like we did in this clip …
