Diamond Double Counter Cross Pull-Ups

Set four cones in a diamond between the free-throw line and the three-point line. Move through the cone sequence with controlled changes of direction, then gather into the pull-up shown in the drill video.

Set up

Place four cones in a diamond shape between the free-throw line and the three-point line. Use one basketball and begin at the first cone.

Movement sequence

  1. Attack the first cone with the right hand.
  2. Use a between-the-legs dribble into a cross, then repeat the change with an over-the-top move.
  3. Continue to the next cone, change direction with a crossover, then use another change before the side-step pull-up.
  4. Repeat from the opposite hand so both directions use the same cone path.
