Coach Bob Schurtz: Another very valuable pass to be able to use in a game is the bounce pass. Still similar (to the chest pass), they're still going to snap the ball with their thumbs, but in case the defender is standing between you and your teammate, you have to be able to get the ball around him. Unfortunately, as a chest pass, it would hit the defender.
What Jordan might be able to do now is still take a step towards his teammate, but now bounce it around the defender.You'll be able to use this both in the game and also inbounding the ball underneath the basket. Good job, guys.
