Footwork
Pivot and score


sketch
1
Use all baskets. 1 starts under the basket in triple threat, dribbles to the foul line, jump stops, forward pivots on the permanent pivot foot (sweep and check), dribbles to the basket and shoots once, rebounds, dribbles back out to the foul line and continues for one minute (or 30 seconds). How many baskets can 1 score? 2 and 3 go next, then repeat using reverse pivots.

Option - make a putback on a miss.
