How it runs
Offense cuts from the corner to the wing to the top looking for a pass. Defender sprints through every cut in a deny stance with the lead hand in the passing lane. Live on any catch.
Coaching points
Chest to the ball, hand in the lane. Never let the cutter cross your face.
Scoring
A completed catch above the free throw line is a point for the offense.
