Skills every center should have

Hey what's up everybody! This weeks post will be on skills that every center, despite their build, should have. First off, being a center, one should have at least three go-to moves when they are in the paint. My personal favorites are the drop step, baby hook, and drop step jump shot.

Drop step is the most basic move, the center just drops one of his legs behind the center, power dribbles, then goes up for an easy lay up.

 The baby hook can be used either toward the middle or outwards. The center takes one power dribble either inwards or out, and then does a small hook shot while keeping his shoulder parallel with his defender.

And finally, the drop step jump shot. This move is used if one's defender is taller and can easily swat their lay-ups down. The center does a drop step mid key either inwards or out. They then do a jump shot aiming for a swoosh or to bank it in.
