Most teams aren't typically drawing up inbounds plays for their 5 to shoot a three. But when your 6'9" center (Omari Spellman) is shooting close to 45% from deep, you make an exception, as Villanova does. Final Four Breakdown: Villanova Wildcats - XsOs Behind the Dominance See More

Loyola-Chicago uses this play to shift the defense from one side of the floor to the other by allowing the ball to touch a different side of the floor at least four times during a given possession. Each time the ball switches sides of the floor, defensive players on the weak side of the floor have to sprint into help. When the ball gets back on their side of the floor, they then have to close out to contain the ball. Forcing the defense to move and make continual closeouts usually results in defensive breakdowns. This is how the Ramblers are able to attack the paint and get open shots. See More

The Villanova Philosophy: When 5 of your top 6 players shoot 39% or better from 3, you run as many stagger screens and pin down screens as possible to get those shooters open from deep. And if the defender shows on the second screen in the stagger, the 5 man slips to the bucket for an easy bucket. Final Four Breakdown: Villanova Wildcats - XsOs Behind the Dominance See More

Kansas State set up this lob play by setting a pindown screen for the point guard in the middle of the floor. When 1 receives the ball, 5 sets a back screen for 3 to cut to the rim. 4 sets a flare screen for 2 to occupy the other defenders as 1 makes a lob pass to 3 at the rim. See More

This is a great set out of the Michigan Two Guard offense that could result in a wide open layup, a guard post up (Marcus Smart mismatch action), or a screen-the-screener 3pt point look. Final Four Breakdown: Michigan Wolverines - Find, Use, Create Philosophy See More

Don't be fooled but the lack of "success" of these set plays in the video clip below. The coaching staffs in post-season play are so well scouted and the teams are elite in preperation that oftentimes the desired shot is not available. Nonetheles, the analytics surrounding side changes and paint touches remains true, as they break the defense down with each action. This set presents several shot opportunities, and the spacing is so phenoenal that however the defense plays it, there will be scoring options with the advantage created. See More

Buffalo ran this action in its NCAA Tournament win vs Arizona. The Bulls added a little twist to the traditional back screen, ball screen action by using a PG to back screen for 4. This gives the lob an option and makes a bigger defender cover more ground. It also flows right into roll and replace action. NCAA Tournament - XsOs Behind the Upsets See More

The Toronto Raptors have revitalized their offense in the 2017-18 season, but not without keeping some old favourite set plays from previous seasons. This play is a repurposed crunch-time special, as it use to be a staple of close games in the 4th quarter more than 5 years ago. Over the years, this set's usage has ebbed and flowed. This year, the Raptors are using it outside of a late-game setting and are introducing it into their After Timeout specials. See More

Loyola Chicago runs this elbow action to get its 4 the ball to attack in a middle ball screen. 1 passes to 4 at the elbow then screens for 3. 3 cuts to the weak side leaving 1 as the only player on the right side of the floor, forcing his defender to provide help on 5 rolling to the basket. 4 looks to create a shot for himself, pass to 5 on the roll to the basket or hit 1 filling behind the play on the wing. If 1 gets the ball, he can look at 5 in the post or create a shot off the dribble. See More

The University of Houston runs an incredibly effective offense. This set is designed to get a mismatch and the ball in space with shooters surrounding him. Michigan switched this defensively, which for most teams in the country a 1 to 5 or 1 to 4 ball screen would present serious mismatch problems. If defense does not switch, there is either a layup, three, or long closeout to be had. See More
