Setup
This play is run out of a 1-4 Low set. It's a great play to run quality outside shooters off of baseline screens.
Execution
- O1 the point guard or coach should designate the play side for the other players.
- The two players on each block and the player in the opposite corner should step up to set a Triple Screen for the other corner.
- After O2 gets to the wing, O4 and O5 turn and set a screen for the corner who had just screened, that player cuts through on baseline to the opposite side.
Optional: We sometimes have the post set a cross screen away after a catch on the wing (not shown).
