This is one of the best warm up drills that you can use at the beginning of a workout or practice. It develops ball handling, footwork, finishing, and shooting. And it progressively warms up your body for more high intensity work. That way, you're less likely to get injured.
There are a lot of little things that go unnoticed in this drill that are really important.
Also, it's great for all levels of players. If you're a beginner, you can work on basic dribbling progressions. If you're a high-level player, you can work on advanced dribble combinations and finishing moves.
The quick dribbling and also the quick chopping of your feet through the cones does a few things for you. It excites and wakes up your nervous system. This makes you more alert. It prepares you to react quickly.
The chopping of your feet is also an extremely effective way to warm up and get all of the muscles firing in your legs.
Also, the short, quick movements make you less likely to get injured when compared to going straight into a drill where you're sprinting, cutting, and jumping at game speed.
And due to the shortened distance between the cones and the goal, it prevents from reaching full speed. That way, you can't accidentally go too fast too soon.
Then when you practice your finishing and shooting, you're preparing for jumping that occurs during play with jumps off one leg and two legs.
After doing this drill for a couple of minutes, you're ready for more aggressive sprints, cuts, and jumping.
Additionally, it's great for improving your first step speed and explosiveness!
Think about what happens when you reach the last cone and you're ready to take that dribble to attack the hoop.
You're in a low squat position, probably lower than you normally play. From this low position, it's easier to stop and change directions. And this helps you get lower on your first step when exploding towards the hoop.
This is what a lot of pros practice to improve stride length, muscle strength and power, and mobility. It also improves your balance, so you can remain strong and stable with the defender pushing on you. That way, they don't knock you off your straight line.
It trains you how to get to a lower position, so it naturally happens during the game.

thank you for tip
Using this one
any suggestions for big groups? I only got two baskets and 12 kids....
Wow
no bueno
Like the drill.. only thing i dont like are the cones.. players are lookin down while dribbling. They should be keepin their heads up. Cones really pointless
Cones are for the reps needed. If you don't like cones you can get flat rubber disks. Kids are lazy and if you don't have those they will most definitely take shortcuts and the path of least resistance.
you could have them use blinders as well.

...and when the kids hit a cone you gotta stop the drill to put the cone back in place too.

NOT GAME LIKE!
It's a warm-up, doesn't need to be game like.
Not game like, however, many youth basketball players lack the ball handling skills needed in pressure situations. This will help them get better at that.
I see too many kids trying to execute the latest "game-like" moves of their favorite NBA players without ever mastering simple ball handling skills... and it looks silly in the games. The pros can pull those moves off because basic ball handling is like 2nd nature to them.
ohsnap31 it's all about progression, everybody starts from somewhere, if you skip steps you'll never reach your goals.
Play dribble knockout or tag.
