Every coach agrees - the ability of players to make free throws in-game is essential. What isn’t agreed on is how to practice free throw shooting. I’ve had some coaches tell me they don’t devote any practice time to free throw shooting.
We do spend time on free throw shooting, but like every other drill, our FT drills are designed to maximize time and build other areas of our program at the same time. This week, I’m sharing with you a couple on-court “mini-clinics” from our coaching staff talking through ways we incorporate free throw shooting into our practice time.
