Good Ol Fashioned “Mikan Drill”

Tuesday, February 16th, 2010

Here is the “Mikan Drill”, named after George Mikan (NBA great who played for the Minneapolis Lakers).  This  is a GREAT drill that helps you to improve on your footwork and ability to finish lay-ups with both your right and left hand.  You will learn to use the correct footwork on a left hand lay-up as well as a right hand lay-up.  This is a drill that we at Hoop Dreams use for our youngest players all the way up to our pro’s!
