How to Make a Behind the Back Lay-up in Basketball

Video Transcript

"I'm Ritchie Greer with Expert Village. The beauty of the behind-the-back-lay up is you're able to drive directly into your defender. Now, once he makes a reach or a play for the ball, that's when you take the ball and you take it behind your back. Now, your momentum should carry you past your defender which leaves you a wide open lane to the basket. As such, once again, we'll take the ball from here, he'll go for the steal, we'll take it behind and around. Behind and around. Get your possession of the ball once again and throw it off the glass and into the basket. I like this because, once again, it give you a chance to past your defender, and has your clear open lane to the basket. Two points."
