Princeton Point - Over

Princeton Point - Over is one of the basic actions of the Princeton Point Series.

Phase 1
43251

After the initiating action from Point:

  • 1 goes OVER 5
  • 2 cuts to corner when they see 1 approaching to provide better spacing
Phase 2
43251
  • 2 uses 1's screen
  • In this clip, 2 rejects the screen and goes backdoor. This is the most common action.
  • 2 can also tight curl around the screen.
  • 5 looks for 2 on the cut or for 2 posting up in the lane
Phase 3
43251
  • 5 passes to 1
  • While 5 is passing to 1:
  • 2 finishes their cut to opposite corner
  • 3 fills
  • 4 fills
Phase 4
43251
  • Now, 1 and 5 can run an empty ballscreen
  • Here, 5 rolls to the rim but if 5 is a shooter this is a great opportunity for a pick and pop

What you do after this is up to what you run offensively. You can flow into Princeton, run another concept based offense, or pull it back out to "set it up".
