About This Play/Drill

This play is designed to get a backdoor off of a middle pick and roll.  We can either get a three-pointer from the point guard or get the back cut to the ball screener.

  • Basketball Play - 4 Short

Frame 1
#1 dribbles to the wing on the same side as #'s 3 and 4. #3 will cut from the corner to the low post on his side and post up for a possible post feed.


Frame 2
If #3 does not get the ball after posting up for a count of two, #3 will come up halfway to set a back screen for #4 so that he can post up. #1 can pass to #4 for a possible post feed or to #3 at the top of the key.


Frame 3
#3 comes off of a ball screen set by #5. While this is happening, #4 flashes to the elbow that was occupied by #5 at the start of the play.


Frame 4
#3 comes off of the pick and roll and passes to #4. #4 can then hit #5 going to the basket on the backdoor or kick the ball out to #1 for a jump shot.
