Out-of-Bounds Play "Stack 1"It's amazing how often I see this very simple play result in an easy lay-up for the 3rd player in the stack! The first two players in the stack are good outside shooters and split right and left. Usually the defenders will follow them. In the confusion, the 3rd player in the stack slips into the space vacated by the first two, and surprisingly often, will be open for a simple lay-up. The 4th player in the stack drops back for safety outlet. If the pass goes to the corner or to the point, O5 should slip into the low post for a quick pass back (see red arrows). |
Here is another very simple stack play.
O1, O2 and O4 set a triple screen as O3 cuts out to the short corner for the shot. |
