How it works

Floppy Action: Shooter starts at the block and reads which screen to use. Two screeners set screens on both sides at the elbow.

  1. Shooter starts at the block and reads which screen to use.
  2. Two screeners set screens on both sides at the elbow.
  3. Shooter cuts off the stronger screen to the wing or corner.
  4. Ball is entered from the top to the shooter on the cut.

Coaching tips

The shooter must sell the opposite direction before cutting. Screeners must hold their screens and not drift — timing the entry pass is critical.
