Learn from the best players in the world. We're using game film (and NBA2K) to get in the mind of Steph Curry.
One way to learn more about basketball is to pause games, assess the situation and predict what's going to happen. Today Steph Curry is our teacher - apply what he does and why he does it to your next practice or game.
This is a great play If one of your guards has a size advantage.
1 - Cut hard off of ‘4’, get open on wing, wait for ‘3’ to get post position before passing.
2 - Cut hard off of ‘4’, set stationary back screen.
3 - Wait for screen from ‘2’, cut hard to basket.
4 - Set stationary screens, flash to ball if passers need it.
5 - Cut to top of key, swing ball to ‘1’.

This 4 Out offense will get you great opportunities to score.
Keys to success: Three things will help the success rate of this play:
- ‘1’ must set a solid screen.
- The ball must go to ‘4’ to create a better angle for the pass to ‘5’.
- ‘1’ flashes to the ball-side elbow after the screen for ‘5’.
Elapsed Time: 5-10 seconds.
Helpful Drills: Passing drills; Post play drills; Reading defense drills.
