Discover why Tyrese Maxey’s single‑hand gather layup is the most efficient finish for modern guards.
A single‑hand gather is the act of taking the ball from a dribble directly into a one‑hand control, without ever bringing it to two hands. From that point the player can flow straight into a layup, a scoop, a push‑shot, or any finish that the defender’s positioning demands. Maxey uses this as a time‑compression strategy: fewer hand exchanges equal fewer opportunities for the defense to react.
