Quick Pinch

Quick Pinch is a lightning-fast baseline out of bounds play for an open jumper off a tight stack screen.

Breakdown

  • Quickest of all baseline out of bounds quick hitters, designed for an immediate open shot.
  • Set up in a tight stack—run this only if the defense is fully inside.
  • 2 and 4 pinch screen 3’s defender, leaving no room to fight through.
  • 3 takes 2–3 steps back, and 1 delivers the pass right away for the quick look.

Coaching Tip

Only run if the defense is inside the stack. Keep it tight—defenders should have no room to slip through. If a defender sets up outside, 1 must call it off and run a standard stack.
