Backdoor Play From Box Set

4 and 5 screen down to allow 3 and 2 to pop out to the wings. 1 cuts to the strong-side corner after passing to 2. 3 begins to set up the defender by starting to the top of the key.

2 looks to the corner and 4 flashes to the ball. (If denied, 4 plants and goes backdoor for the lob). 3 makes a direct cut to the basket as 4 catches the ball. 4 turns to make a bounce pass to 3. If 3 is denied, 4 turns back to feed 5, who has pinned his or her defender.
