Squeeze the Shooter

Breakdown

  • 3 and 4 set a stagger screen for 5, who cuts to the hoop.
  • 3 and 4 then turn to set a tight double screen for 2.
  • 2 uses the double screen to cut to the corner for a shot.
  • 4 rolls off the screen to the hoop for a final layup option.

Coaching Tip

The double screen must be tight to free 2 cleanly — if the defense cheats, 4 will often be open rolling to the basket.
