Box Across

A baseline out of bounds play from the box set that creates an easy layup through cross screens and a strong seal from 5.

Breakdown

  • Quick-hitter baseline out of bounds play to create an easy scoring look.
  • Start in a box set under the hoop.
  • 5 and 3 set cross screens as 4 cuts ballside and 2 cuts to the corner.
  • 5 immediately seals their defender after the screen for a simple layup opportunity.

Coaching Tip

The key is 5’s seal — it must be quick and physical. The entry pass should be delivered immediately before the defense has time to recover.
