Zipper Series Breakdown

Zipper = a cut off a down screen up the free throw lane line.

3 sets that involve a Zipper action as the base and finish with a different aciton: America, Slice and Flex.

Zipper Series plays are great for a players who have difficulty getting open, or a point guard who is a primary scorer. This plays also works well against teams who deny off the ball. As each set begins the same way, the defense does not know which action is coming after the Zipper, making it difficult to scout and guard.
