About This Play/Drill

Coach Blly Donovan ran this special SLOB play late in game to find a corner 3pt shot.

Starting with a stagger screen for 3 to get the ball at the top, then 2 clears to the opposite corner and 4 clears out respectively.

5 relocates to low post area and 1 sprints towards 3, in order to fake a ball screen.

1 slips and pops (slide action) to the gap at the wing area, forcing x2 to rotate, leaving 2 player open in the corner.

5 should block x5 from rotating to the corner.
