1 cuts to the elbow then curls to the basket, gets a pass from 4, shoots, rebounds, and switches lines. 4 cuts for a pass from 2, etc.
 
For high-pocket shooting, players cut across the lane about 8-12 feet in front of the basket, catch a pass above their head with both feet in the air, land on two feet, and immediately pop up into their shot.
 
(Options)
 
- no-dribble finish on the other side, e.g. baby hook, tight scoop, half reverse
- moves the lines out higher, early catch on the move, dribble to finish.
 
Players can take two steps after catching to finish, or one step to start a dribble then two steps to finish after picking up the dribble. See Library - FIBA Travel Rule.
 
See Shooting - Continuous, Fill cuts, Nash 20-minute workout (post turnarounds), Post play - Double cuts, Dino Radja, Post moves and shots.
