1-1-2-1 Press Break

Breaking a press in basketball involves effectively advancing the ball past the opposing team's full-court pressure defense to create scoring opportunities. Here are some key strategies to accomplish this.

1. Use the Middle of the Court: The middle of the court is often the weakest point of a press defense. Utilize passes or dribbles to advance the ball through the middle to break down the defense.

2. Pass Ahead: Look for opportunities to make long passes ahead to teammates who have broken free from defenders. This can lead to fast-break opportunities or open scoring chances.

3. Attack Press Traps: When facing traps or double-teams, players should look to pass out of the trap quickly to open teammates or dribble through the trap with confidence.
