This set is my favorite of the 2019 NCAA Tournament. Virginia ran the elevator set out of a box formation. As Auburn thought it had guarded it well, Virginia built in a counter with a screen for a throwback on the baseline drive. This resulted in a wide open 3 in the Final Four, and Virginia went on to play in the National Championship game. Blog Post: Virginia's Elite Efficiency on Both Sides of the Ball See More

Virginia ran this play to get them into the championship game, drawing a foul on the three-point shot and giving them three free throws to take the lead . Kyle Guy (3) made a three-pointer on the previous possession to bring the deficit to 1. After Auburn hit a free throw to get their lead to 2, Virginia was able to get the ball into the front court and call a timeout with 1.5 seconds left. The initial option on this play was a lob to the rim for Mamadi Diakite. The secondary option for the lead went back to Guy cutting to the corner off the screen from 5.

With 2:45 left in the 1st quarter against Notre Dame, Texas A&M ran this beautiful quick hitter against ND's Triangle and 2 defense. With elite scorers like Chennedy Carter and Kayla Wells, Notre Dame employed a junk defense to slow them down. TAMU was ready and ran this to get a 2 on 1 at the rim. Though they didn't score (blocked layup), the preparation for this defensive adjustment and the players' ability to execute was fantastic. A good set to keep in the back pocket for teams with the luxury of having two stellar scorers. See More

A Down Screen and a Cross Screen are used to move the defense. Then "Gap Clearing Cuts" by the 5 and 2 create a nice double gap for the point guard to attack. See video below. #FastModelMadness See More

Tennessee uses the high post Flare Screen quite often. Here they set up the Flare Screen by running "Spain Action" as a decoy to get their shooter coming off the flare screen. Another nice element to the set is the clear out by 3, which opens up driving space for the shooter on the catch. See More
