Coaching Points
- Position your body between the attacker and the center to force them toward the baseline
- Use your lead arm to cut off the passing lane to the pivot while staying mobile
- The tighter the corner angle, the worse the shot — keep narrowing the attacker's space
- Don't lunge for the ball; controlled pressure is more effective than gambling for steals
- If the attacker attempts a center drive, use your lead foot to cut off the path legally
