The Washington Wizards will run several inbounds plays that start with a Zipper cut first. This SLOB play used by Scott Brooks allows the inbounder to get an open pass to a guard coming toward the sideline before looking to the weak side for a quick pindown. The Wizards have several good off-ball shooters that use down screens well, and this is one play that allows them to use that action.
1 zipper cuts off 5's screen.
3 inbounds to 1 who can rip-and-go if the defender trails.
If no rip-and-go opportunity is available, 1 passes to 2 coming off 4's pin down.
2 makes down screen reads to score going towards the middle of floor.
