UCLA Offense from South Korea that they've been running at FIBA Asia Cup Women 2017. Rather than passing the ball to 3 on the wing to initiate the UCLA entry, 4 sets a ball-screen for 1. As 1 comes off the screen, 3 loops to the basket and pops for a catch from 1. On 4's catch, 5 sets a weak-side flare screen for 2. 5 then pops out for a catch from 4. 3 sets a rip screen for 4. 5 looks to lob to 4 cutting to the basket. See More

Kentucky ran this set in their Elite 8 match-up with North Carolina. The set is well designed, as it creates an advantage in the wing pick and roll. The 4 fills to the top, in the case that the opponent tries to ice or trap the ball screen. A quick pass to 4, allows for the lob to 5. If they do not do those things, then 2 should turn the corner, looking to make a play. See More

This set provides that opportunity because as 1 is catching the ball, the 5 man is setting a ballscreen immediately on X1, giving 1 a chance to attack in a straight line drive right off the catch. Also, this can be an effective play against a team that will blitz/hard hedge the side ballscreen, as 2 can hit 1 quickly off the screen and 1 will have plenty of time to throw the lob to 4 rolling to the basket before the defense recovers.
