1v1 Fake Out SSG
Defender starts rooted on the 3pt line. Offense can bank points by scoring after deceiving the defender.
Later constrained space with markers to force wide angle off drive. Players naturally had to skate dribble to be deceptive.

It is an inhibitor to the development of decision making.
A greater and wider problem is treating the smaller formats of the game, as though it is 11v11.
