The 11-Man Fast-Break Drill, commonly known simply as “11,” is a popular warm-up and transition exercise featuring continuous 3-on-2 sequences. Although often mislabeled as a fast break, the presence of two defenders waiting distorts realism—it never truly becomes a live fast break. This drill helps players practice offensive numerical advantage and quick decision-making during transition.

The Killer-Ball Game is a low-intensity yet engaging cool-down drill that combines attention, reaction speed, and gesture recognition. Players in a circle pass a ball with various techniques (no-look, volleyball-style, Pete Maravich palm pass), while one player in the center reacts to cues—great for minibasket and introductory training levels.
