Finishing: resistance pushes to finish

The offensive player begins dribbling forward from half court. The defender at half court applies physical resistance using their basketball, pushing from the side or directly in front to slow the dribbler. The offensive player must maintain control and drive the defender backward through the resistance. Once the offensive player reaches the three-point line, the drill becomes live. The ball handler attacks the basket and plays 1-on-1 against the rim defender to finish.
