This play can be used as a man or zone set. We saw this used against our zone defense this past season. The play starts with 1 passing to 5 then cutting off of a screen from 3 in the lane. 3 leaves the wing by rubbing off of a screen from 2. 5 passes to 2, then screens down for 3. The hope is that against a zone defense the top zone defender is preoccupied with 2 leaving a two on one situation at the top of the key. See More

If neither option is open, 4 screens across the floor for 5. 4 then cuts around a staggered screen for 2 and 3. 1 looks to pass to 5 at the basket or to 4 for a shot. See More

1 passes the ball into 5 at the high post. Once 5 gets it, he looks to hand the ball to 1 if he is open on the cut to the corner. If 1 doesn't get the ball, he screens for 3 in the corner. 3 curls the screen into the lane. If 3 isn't open, he screens for 2 as 4 screens for 3. At the same time, 5 give the ball to 1 on a dribble hand-off so that 1 can make the pass to 2 for a lay-up or to 3 for a shot. If 3 gets the ball without a shot, he can pass to 2 on the left wing cutting off of a screen from 5. See More

Here is a flex option used by Oregon in the first half against Oklahoma State. The Cowboys defended the action well, but it looks like a good set-up for future plays from the Ducks. The play starts in regular flex with a flex-screen and down-screen. Instead of continuous flex, 2 and 4 set a staggered screen for 3 on the weak side and 1 clears out to the corner. This play gives 5 the opportunity to take his man to the basket 1 on 1 or pass to 3 for a 3-point shot. See More

Oklahoma State used this flex option early when Oregon was playing man to man defense. The Cowboys didn't get a good shot since they gave up on the play after the hand-off (they did not get to the screen for Forte at the end). However, this is a good play to get Forte (2) open for a shot. The play starts in traditional flex with the ball moving from right to left. Instead of 1 setting the down-screen for the flex screener inside, 1 slides to the right wing as 4 sets the down-screen. Once 5 gets the ball at the top of the key, he dribbles right to give 1 the ball on a dribble hand-off. At the same time, Forte sets a cross-screen in the post then cuts to the wing off of a down-screen from 5. This play is difficult to guard because 5's defender has to worry about the hand-off and then react to Forte cutting to the wing. See More

Leading 76-74 with 53.5 seconds remaining, Wichita State ran this set after a timeout to push the lead to four points. They "screen their way into" a horns set, set a backscreen for the point guard who screens for 3 in Flex action. 5 got it in to 3 to put the Shockers up by four with 40 seconds remaining. See More

This is another option that Georgia ran out of their Flex set against Michigan State in the NCAA Tournament. Very early in the game, the Bulldogs caught MSU sleeping and hit 2 on the Flex screen for an easy score. Later they ran the play again and brought 2 off of a double down screen after MSU defended the Flex cut much better. See More
