General:
The guard has two balls and dribbles towards the 3p line. She passes to left and right wing with one hand. As soon as she finishes her 2nd pass she sprints back to the midline and gets the two balls again from the players on the wings. She goes 5 times and then rotate the players.

Variation:

   o make a move before the pass or let the balls switch sides before the pass.
   o Pass from your right hand to left and left hand to the right wing
   o Dribble in with 1 ball low and 1 in a high dribble

   o Roll 1 ball and loop the 2nd
   o Make a hard bounce
   o “twist” the balls so they make a difficult curl
