  • Shocker starts with a pass to either wing.

  • On the pass to the wing, the permanent post moves to the weakside block and the baseline runner moves to the weakside corner. The passer immediately sets a screen on the ball and the ball handler looks to attack the middle of the zone or kick it out to player 3 on the wing.

  • On 3's catch the reads are:

    1. Shot or Drive

    2. One More pass to the corner

    3. Hit the post man 5 sealing middle of the zone

  • Here you see the zone bumping to the corner and the 3 man passing directly to the 5 man sealing off the inside middle of the zone.

  • If nothing develops on the initial attack then the 4 man passes back out to the wing and runs the baseline. The ball side post clears to the weak side block.

  • The play continues to the other side of the floor as the top guard sets a ball screen and the 3 man looks to attack and kick to the 1 man who looks to shoot throw it inside, or kick it to the corner for a 3pt shot.
