About This Play/Drill

"Pinch" is a good zone set to free up your best shooter for a three. I would recommend running zone motion action into it to disguise the play.

  • PG enters to 3 on the wing. 5 flashes to the strongside block/short corner area. 4 flashes to the ball.
     

  • After flashing to the ball 4 dives to the weakside block. 2 replaces his spot. 3 gives 5 and 2 a look and then reverses back to PG.
     

  • On the reversal 3 and 5 screen the outside of the zone and 2 slips through to the wing. PG brings it back on the bounce and looks to hit 2 for a shot in the pocket of the zone. If the defender looks to cheat out give 3 a look on the slip.
