Man-to-Man Defense
Man-to-Man Defense is a basketball strategy where each defensive player is assigned to guard a specific offensive player. The goal is to closely follow and limit the movements of the opponent, making it difficult for them to receive the ball or take a shot. This approach requires good communication and teamwork among defenders to switch assignments when necessary.
In Man-to-Man Defense, players must be aware of their assigned opponent's strengths and weaknesses. Defenders aim to stay between their man and the basket, applying pressure and contesting shots. This defense can be effective in disrupting the offensive flow and creating turnovers.
