About This Play/Drill

We ran this play years ago when I was an assistant coach at Sentinel High School in Missoula Montana. This works great vs 2-3 zone. 

Key Point 1 - Swing the ball around the perimeter to shift the zone

Key Point 2 - Timing is key, 3 should be coming off the back screen as 1 comes off ball screen. 1 dribble and throw it up
