Today's FastDraw Play of the Day takes you to Eurobasket 2011 in Lithuania, for a look at the defensive side of the ball. In Second Round action today, France needed a defensive stop against Turkey to seal the victory. Turkey had the ball out of bounds, down 3 points, with 5 seconds to play in the game, but failed to inbound the ball within the 5-second time limit to do so, and France hung on to win the game. Every coach at one time or another is in a position where their team needs to force a 5-second call to have a chance to win the game. Usually, it occurs when trailing, and rarely does the team pull it off under pressure. In this case France used it to clinch victory in a game they were leading. The video below show you exactly how this play described above unfolded and allowed France to walk away with a Eurobasket victory: See More

The United States women's national team ran this play during the Paris Olympics. Simple action out of transition to put pressure on the rim. The first screener rolls hard and crosses the rim into a post up. This creates a layup or occupies the help defense as the second screener also rolls to the rim. See More

Zalgiris Kaunas used this play in the 2023-2024 season. Zalgiris runs a ton of great action and this is a perfect example of multiple actions moving the defense to get the best look possible. This play is super unique due to the 4, in this case Brady Manek, being a threat from beyond the arc which forces the defense to make a choice. Video clip below. See More

Australia ran this play in the 2024 Paris Olympics. Mills (2) is a great shooter who can get free for a shot or take the attention of the defense which sets up the chase action between the 5 and 1. Plenty of space for the handoff and roll action. See More
