When setting up in a single/double screening action on the baseline it is up to the cutter to read his defender and decide how he is going to use the screen. A good defender is going to try and force the cutter to a side, don’t let the defender dictate what the cutter does. Set good solid screens and then just play out of it.

Play Name: Pitt Panthers: Single Screen/Double Screen Counter Play (11-12)

Similar Plays:  Duke: Double Stack Low Play, Providence Friars: Single/Double Twirl Action Play (11-12), Villanova Wildcats: Single/Double Play (11-12)

Play Goal: Set a single/double screen on the baseline and then let the cutter decide how he uses the screen. Get a shot for the cutter or a duck in for one of the screeners after they set the screen.

Tips: Hit someone on a screen and the cutter needs to set his man up to come off the screen. Read the defender and pass the ball to the cutter when he is open, don’t make him wait on the ball.
