Double stack low by John Hinton

This is a simple zone play intended to get a
jump shot from the weak side.

The play starts off with Player 1 (This should
be your best jump shooter) bringing the ball to the middle.

Player1 calls a play number. For us it's "#1"

We generall yell "Go" to start the play

Player's 2 & 3 pop out to the wings to receive
the ball

Player 1 passes the ball to Player 2. Once
the two low post players sees where the ball is
being passed to, the Player on the same side
of the court where the ball is passed (Player
4). goes to the opposite low post and sets a
double screen.

Player 1 cuts to the basket, looking for a pass
from Player 2. If the pass isn't available the
play continues.

Player 3 moves to the top of the key at the
same time Player 2 is cutting to basket.

Player 1 goes behind the double screen set by
Players 4 & 5.

The ball is passed back to the top of the key
to Player 3

Player 3 passes the ball to Player 1 for the
jump shot. Player 2 drops down to help
rebound.

Things I emphasize:

Spacing is important. The players need to be
far enough apart for the passes to go to the
wings as well as to player shooting at the end
of the play.

The players popping up to the wings have to
meet the pass in order to avoid steals.

The passes must be quick in order to keep
ahead of the defense's reaction.

The player cutting (Player 1 in this example)
has to run hard to get into position for the jump
shot. His shot has to be done in one motion
without a dribble.

This play can be run in either direction as long
as the low post person know's to double
screen to the opposite side.

This play can also be used against a man to
man defense.
