Basketball Plays--Demon

This play is a last second sideline inbounds play sent to me by Coach Ken Sartini. This is what he had to say about the play:

I designed this play at the end of one game... and we had a guard that was a soccer player so he could make that long over the head skip pass with some power to it.  The first time we ran it we got the point guard #1 off the double staggered screen for a three.. he was fouled in the act and hit 3 free throws for the W!

This play is run with limited time on the clock when the pass receiver must catch and immediately shoot with no time for a dribble or pass.

If you are looking for a 3 point shot, 3 and 1 are the players that you are looking for. If all you need is a 2 point shot, then 5 and 4 are also good options.

3 must read the defender. If 3's defender (X3) is playing down in the paint, 4 screens X3 and 3 cuts to the paint and then step back for the skip pass from 2 for an immediate shot.

If X3 is playing out on 3 then 3 cuts baseline off double staggered screens by 4 and 1, to the ball-side corner. After screening for 3, 4 moves to the high-post.

4 then drops down and sets a screen for 1, while 5 moves to the high post and also screens for 1 and makes it another double staggered screen. 1 cuts around the double staggered screen to the point, looking for the pass from 2 and a shot.

After the staggered double screen, 5 slides to the ball-side elbow and 4 moves to the opposite-side low block. The pass from 2 could go to 3, 5, 1, or 4.

If 2's defender is sagging way off, 2 could get the return pass and shoot if there is enough time on the clock.
