Off-Ball Defense Players must learn how to shut down their man when they don’t have the ball. Coach Locke shows you his five core responsibilities to make you an effective off-ball player. These include contesting screens, defending the flasher, and defending the wing to wing action. Defending the Screen & Roll  Locke teaches show and recover techniques to prevent mismatches and force the ball to reverse or be picked up. He reinforces ball-side/help-side recognition using variations of the Shell Drill. The shell drills work on communication and the ball-you-man triangle to keep the offense in check. Transition Defense  This is one of the most difficult parts of the game.
