Duke: Ball Screen Baseline Double Basketball Play

Having multiple actions in the same basketball play will usually end up in a good shot for your team. By using the ball screen at the top of the key for this play, you force the other team’s big men to watch the play and be in the help. This allows for the shooter to come off the baseline double for the open shot in the corner. The ball screen is really a distraction to help set up the shooter along the baseline, but it is important that the ball handler is still aggressive and makes the defense respect them on the ball screen action.
