Purpose

Creates a two-guard front to run against 1-3-1 and 3-2 zone defenses

Drill Setup

2 players on top, 2 players on the wings and one player down low in the post.

How It Works

1. 2 passes to 1 who passes to 3.
2. 2 cuts through the lane to the baseline.
3. 4 cuts to the middle of the free throw line.
4. 3 looks over the top of the defense to 5 down low, whose man may have left to guard 4.
5. Option 2: If 5 is covered, 3 ball fakes to 2 on the baseline and passes back to 1 at the top. 3 runs down and screens the bottom defender in the zone.
6. 4 backs out to the wing. 2 runs to the opposite baseline.
7. 5 goes over the screen and posts in the middle of the lane.
8. 1 passes to 5 for the shot.

Coaching Tips

If 5 is not open on option 2, 1 can pass to 4 for the shot or 4 can pass down to 2 on the baseline.
