Syracuse Set Play

#1 dribbles to the left wing and then comes off of a double staggered screen set by #4 and #5. #1 will immediately look for an open 3 point shot. #2 is getting ready to set a back screen for #4.

#2 now back screens for #4 and #1 looks for #4 on the block for a lay-up. #3 will stay in the left corner and #5 will move to the middle of the lane. Extra attention must be given to the timing of the back screen from #2 on #4 for it to be effective.

Syracuse Set Play

Right after #4 cuts off of #2's screen, #5 will screen down for #2 (pick the picker action) and #1 will hit #2 for an open three point shot. #3 will slide up to keep his man occupied.
