For now during this pandemic, team play and even 1-on-1 play has to be avoided. But you can still workout while social distancing. Here are many good individual drills that players can do on their own. Create a weekly schedule, selecting some drills that you do every day, and some that you rotate 2-3 times/week. Work on your weaknesses!
One-ball and 2-ball stationary dribbling drills - daily 10 min
Chair dribbling drills - daily 5 min
Rapid Fire Wall Passing - 5 min
Footwork drills
Shooting form and individual shooting workout - daily 20-30 min
