Possessions lead to shots, which lead to points, which lead to wins. No defensive possession is finished until the defensive rebound is taken care of, as letting up an offensive rebound essentially resets the possession for the offense. To give yourself the best chance at coming down with the defensive rebound, it\u2019s important to do the following:<\/p>\n<p>1.) Find the opponent\u2019s body. Make sure to extend your arm and lock your forearm to their chest so you know exactly where they are on the court. Identifying who you are going to box out better prepares you to grab the defensive rebound. If you find yourself ball-watching after a missed shot, you\u2019re allowing the rebound to become a 50-50 play.<\/p>\n<p>2.) Box out your opponent by placing your butt between them and the basket. This allows you to control their position and eliminate their progress to the ball.<\/p>\n<p>3.) Once you\u2019ve established your position between your opponent and the basket, it\u2019s time to crash the boards. Remember: the defensive possession is not finished until you secure the rebound. &nbsp; Grabbing defensive rebounds is essential for success and a surefire way to earn more playing time from your coach. Even if you are a guard, learning how to handle yourself in the paint is a great way to diversify your game.<\/p>\n<p>If your looking to improve your play down low on the offensive end, the Mikan Drill is extremely effective. &nbsp; If you\u2019re in search of further instruction beyond the video, there are many qualified coaches like Mark Phillips who can give you the necessary <a href=\"https:\/\/www.coachup.com\/nation2021\/categories\/basketball-training\" rel=\"follow\" data-mce-href=\"https:\/\/www.coachup.com\/nation2021\/categories\/basketball-training\">basketball tips<\/a> to improve your play in the paint.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CoachUp coach Mark Phillips, former Bowdoin center and CoachUp coach, teaches how to rebound on defense.
