Butler used this play after a timeout near the end of the game against Texas to get Dunham in a position to drive off of a staggered screen. The play starts with the point guard dribbling to the right as Dunham cuts off of a down-screen from 5. Once Dunham has the ball, 4 and 5 set up a staggered high ball-screen. In the game, Dunham turned down the staggered screen and drove to the basket forcing Texas to foul on the penetration. See More

Dayton vs. Boise State 3/18/15 Shortly after the first media timeout, Dayton ran this screen the screener set vs. Boise State. (14:20 mark of the first half). The play got Darrell Davis a wide open look because he set a great screen for the 4 diving to the block and his defense stayed to help. This set should work with most personnel. See More

In this play by UAB, the Blazers send the 3 down underneath the basket where he then has the option to cut off of a staggered screen or single screen. Early in the game, UAB has been utilizing the single option. Once 3 gets to the wing, 1 and 2 clear out to the perimeter and 4 and 5 move up to set a staggered ball-screen for 3. The play has been blown up by Iowa State so they haven't gotten all the way through to the ball-screen, but it is a solid action that will force the Cyclones to defend UAB's quick guards. See More

Robert Morris ran this play with 3 minutes to go and a small lead over North Florida to get an open mid-range jumper. Starting out of a 1-4 set, the 1 hits the wing and pins down for the 4 man to receive a ball reversal. 1 continues under the rim while 5 rips 3 under the rim. From here, it turns into common Blast action. 5 pins for 1 to receive a DHO with 4. 3 and 2 time their pin down so that 3 comes off of the screen right after 1 receives the DHO, setting up an open mid-range jumper.

In this play, Robert Morris was looking for a 3-point shot. The play starts with 4 running down the lane lane to screen for 3 at the block. 3 cuts out to the wing to get the ball from 1. If 3 has a 3-point shot here he will take it. If 3 doesn't have a shot, the next 3-point shot option is 2 cutting off of a staggered screen. Lastly, the 3rd look at a 3-point shot is 1 curling around 5 at the top of the key. See More

Coach Joyner used this play against Manhattan on Tuesday night. Since the Jaspers pressed and zoned so much, it was rare that we got to see some man actions from the Pirates. Also, it was rare to see offense ran past the initial actions by either team due to the fast paced nature of both teams. On some dead ball situations and out-of-bounds plays, Manhattan matched up man to man. In this baseline out-of-bounds play, Hampton uses a misdirection by the 4 man to leave the ball-side corner open for 3 to cut to. If open, 3 will take the shot in the corner. If he isn't open, 3 dribbles towards the middle of the floor as 4 starts his sequence of down screens. The first down screen is set for 1 on the opposite wing. Again, 1 will take the shot if open off of the screen. If 1 isn't open, he looks to pass to 2 cutting off of the second down screen from 4. See More

Georgia coach Mark Fox has done a fantastic job turning around a Bulldog program that has been towards the bottom of the SEC for the better part of a decade. Now securing an at-large birth to the NCAA Tournament, Fox is finally getting some well-deserved recognition, in particular for his offense. Fox employs a lot of high post actions, raising his big men to the elbows and the three point line to open driving lanes and take away help at the rim. The multitude of dribble handoffs that Georgia runs keeps defenses honest, and the speed at which they run them makes them dangerous offensively. One of the most impressive sets I saw Fox and his team run during their second game of the year against Kentucky was a variation of the Chin offense that split into the shuffle offense. By moving the ball side-to-side several times, the defense was forced to shift and move by reacting to the player and ball movement. The shuffle offense is effective because it allows a post-up opportunity with great spacing; Fox’s set drops the trailer or the 4-man to the block for what can be a mis-match post. See More
