Zoom Action is so widely used that defenses often anticipate a specific path once they recognize the setup. Coaches can leverage this expectation by incorporating decoy movements, creating different scoring opportunities while maintaining the same structure.
This setup appears designed for Bol (#11 in black), but he acts as a decoy for Booker (#1 in black). As Bol cuts backdoor, it triggers Booker to receive the DHO from Richards (#2 in black).
Because Booker is a major perimeter threat, both defenders in white focus on him, leaving Richards with a clear roll lane. This action forces a 4v3 advantage on the backline, creating an easy scoring opportunity through a simple yet deliberate movement.
