Basketball Play - Stagger Split Action

Stagger Split Action

Matt Wheeler 10/23/2017

In the stagger split action, the player positions do not matter as much as putting the player with the right skills set in those positions. 1 must be a shooter or playmaker. He will most likely get the ball to create a shot for himself or others. 2 needs to be a good passer. He has to make the read and deliver the ball to the correct person. 3 has to be an offensive threat, which forces the defense to have to provide help as he cuts to the basket. 4 is where you want your best screener to be. He has to get 1 open on the down screen. 5 needs to be put in a position where he creates good spacing for your team. FMS Blog: Stagger Split Action Breakdown See More
