Brazil ran this set multiple times in their preliminary game against Lithuania to get open looks for their wing players. The handoff flare screen combination proved difficult to guard. When it was defended successfully, Brazil ran a ball screen option to get their point guard in a position to attack the paint. See More

With the Australian Boomers win over the French national team I thought I would put up my favorite play from the French U17 mens team. We played the French team in pre world competition losing to them by 1 point on a shot at the buzzer. This action which we called "cirlce motion" was very effective at allowing them to have multiple scoring options while being hard for us to negate defencively. I like the action to create uncontested threes and/or in situations you want some time off the clock before on ball play. See More

One of the most common actions we faced at the recent FIBA U17 World Championship was Horns into Flex sets. Almost every nation we faced had their version of this. The ones drawn up today are by the Spain team who we faced in the quarter finals. I liked thier three seperate reads that they would generate out of the action, each look depending on what they needed at each stage of the game. Horns is still the most commonly used action in youth international play, but this campaign compared to the last saw a lot more flex action out of it. See More

In this play, they set a cross screen into a point handoff straight into a flare screen for the 4 man. The combo action can open up a driving lane for the guard or a flare shot for the 4. See More

The Warriors get an open shot for Klay Thompson by passing in to the post then having Livingston set a flare screen for Thompson to cut to the wing. If the shot isn't there right away, the big can move out from the block and set a step-up ball-screen. See More
