About This Play/Drill

We start by forming a triple stack on either block with our player being guarded M2M on top.  To initiate the action, the point guard uses a freeze dribble to attack the top defender in the box and the players forming the stack set a double screen on the low box defender and the middle guard looks to pop out to shooting range.  If the bottom of the zone shifts out quickly to defended the short corner/corner shot, the ball side post immediately screens away and brings weak side post across the hoop for a baseline bounce pass.  If nothing develops on this action a quick pass to the point guard followed by a ball screen by the guarded player and the action can be run to the other side.  If at anytime the bottom box defender anticipates the corner pass, the point guard can ball fake and immediately hit the post player slipping the screen on the block.  You can also run this play with your player being guarded M2M as the baseline runner.

  • Triple Stack on block with guarded player on top of the stack.

  • Point guard initiates action by using freeze dribble to engage top defender of the box. At the same time, 2 guard and 5 man pinch in the bottom of the zone. The 3 man then pops to shooting range for a quick shot.

  • On the catch by the 3 man, 2 lifts up to weakside elbow area while 5 screens weakside bottow zone defender and brings 4 man under the rim for a quick lay-up or dunk.

  • If nothing develops then action continues with pass out to point guard around elbow area.

  • Guarded player 2 man sets a screen on top zone defender and point guard looks to come off and freeze other top defender. 4 man looks to come off 5 man screen along the baseline for a shot within player range.

  • If baseline defender cheats the screen, point guard can ball fake and pass immediately to 5 man on the block.

  • If pass is delivered to 4 man on baseline, then 5 immediately screens away and brings 3 man across under the zone. 5 player can flash back quick and receive pass from 4 man if x5 defender takes away baseline cutter.
