Attack/defend
Numbers from centre


sketch
1
One team is on each baseline, players are paired up with someone on the other team. Coach rolls or tosses a ball onto the court, calls one (or more) numbers for 1 on 1, 2 on 2, etc., play fullcourt to a score or ball out of play.

Progression - coach can toss out more balls and call numbers while play is on.
 
For a nice progression using numbers, run NBA Layups (the first option), Controlled 1 on 1, then Numbers from centre.

a) Four corners - 2 on 2, players start at each corner, coach tosses a ball on the court, play to a score at either basket, progression - 3 on 3.
 
b) One on one by numbers - coach puts a ball at halfcourt, calls a number, those two players play 1-on-1 fullcourt to a score.
