This is another simple set to put x5 behind in his ball screen coverage responsibilities. Very effective yet easy set to run as early offense, in transition, or even late clock. Blog Post: Texas Tech Defense Puts Opponents on Red Alert See More

This set is my favorite of the 2019 NCAA Tournament. Virginia ran the elevator set out of a box formation. As Auburn thought it had guarded it well, Virginia built in a counter with a screen for a throwback on the baseline drive. This resulted in a wide open 3 in the Final Four, and Virginia went on to play in the National Championship game. Blog Post: Virginia's Elite Efficiency on Both Sides of the Ball See More

Virginia ran this play to get them into the championship game, drawing a foul on the three-point shot and giving them three free throws to take the lead . Kyle Guy (3) made a three-pointer on the previous possession to bring the deficit to 1. After Auburn hit a free throw to get their lead to 2, Virginia was able to get the ball into the front court and call a timeout with 1.5 seconds left. The initial option on this play was a lob to the rim for Mamadi Diakite. The secondary option for the lead went back to Guy cutting to the corner off the screen from 5.

More quality execution from the #1 ranked Half Court offense in the 2019 NCAA Final Four. Play starts with the PG entering a DHO with the shooter on the wing. As the shooter and trailer exchange pass reversals, the PG receives a shuffle screen from the post player and the opposite wing swaps sides. On the 2nd reversal, the trailer completes the reversal and hits the PG on the opposite wing, then slips the pick and pop. As the PG drives the shooters cuts the lane, then leaks out to the corner for 3! See More

With 5:57 left in the 3rd quarter of their matchup with Oregon State, Lousiville's women's team ran this Horns quick hitter to get multiple options - in this case a strong post isolation off a skip pass. Other options would include a curl layup off the double stagger, a kickout three, or a skip three. See More

Michigan State ran this set with multiple actions to either get a layup off of the back screen or a three off of the down screen. Screening before receiving a screen occupies the defender and hopefully frees up the shooter more. See More

This is a set that Izzo has ran for years, so it is no surprise that he dusted it off for the 2019 NCAA Tournament. It features an option for a post feed, or a shooter off of a triple stagger screen. Check out the Final Four team breakdown on the Spartans below! See More

Tennessee uses the high post Flare Screen quite often. Here they set up the Flare Screen by running "Spain Action" as a decoy to get their shooter coming off the flare screen. Another nice element to the set is the clear out by 3, which opens up driving space for the shooter on the catch. See More

Purdue was down two late in their sweet sixteen game against Tennessee when they ran this play to get their shooter, Ryan Cline, the ball for a three-point shot. The play design uses both post players to make the ball reversals because they are less likely to be denied. 3 gets the ball off of a screen and handoff from both bigs to get the open shot. See More

To open the 4th quarter in their game against Oregon, the Indiana women's team ran this set to create an isolation off a flare screen for its best shooter. Simple misdirection and creation of an overload stretched the Ducks' defense, resulting in a small advantage gained and used. See More

With 6:25 left in their round of 32 matchup with Indiana, Oregon ran this quick hitter out of a box SLOB set to get Sabrina Ionescu a wide open 3. Note the counter to the switch on the down screen would create an automatic slip & high low with the guard at the top and the post player setting the screen.

Love this set. I am a huge fan of getting skilled bigs at the top of the key with the ball and space. The misdirection to begin softens the defense up and then there are countless possibilities you can finish this set with. I love the natural push of the drive off of the weave and Chicago action handoff into the flare on the weak side. That flare can be easily mis-guarded and result in a slip and a wide open layup for the screener. I love the built in throw-back, or "shake" action with the ball screen, roll, and corner lift as well. A lot of bang for your buck with this one. See More
