5. The jab step can be used in order to trick the defender and send him or her in the wrong direction, getting you space. Another move is the fake pass. Once again, you will send the defender in the wrong direction, giving you just enough time to dribble away or shoot a basket.

The Jab step shot- Used when a player is guarding you to closely, take a small jab step to fake the defender, pull back you leg and shoot.

3.10 players, 5 on each team
4.Triple threat position
5.In the strong side drive, the player jab steps to catch the defense off guard and the takes a big low step to drive up to the basket and make a lay up. In the jab jump shot, the player takes a small jab step and quickly goes into a jump shot. The strong side drive is used when there is not a lot of defense backing up the defensive opponent and there is a clear path if the player passes the opponent. The jab jump shot is used when the defense backs away from the jab and gives you space to quickly shoot.
