5. Spin Moves to Middle (Full & Half Spin)

🧠 Coaching Tips

• Reps Matter: At home, go for 5 makes per move. In practice, use "first to 2" for tempo.

• Game Simulation: Rebound your own shot and toss out to simulate a real catch and attack.

• Balance First: Speed is good, but only after footwork and balance are solid.

• Progression Ideas: Start at the top of the key, then add reps from both wings and corners.
