Playname : Triple post zone offense

1 Al Rayyan Triple Post Zone Offense #1 enters to #2 on the right wing. Cuts through the lane and out to the opposite wing. #4 steps to short corner while the high post player #5 cuts down to the low post position. Hopefully, with #4 stepping to short corner, he has taken the low post defender with him leaving a gap for #5 to fill in the low post. #3, your other wing / post player in the triple post, flashes to the high post area.

2 Al Rayyan Triple Post Zone Offense If #3 receives the ball in the high post, #5 is taught to always duck in the middle of the lane looking for the high / low entry pass from #3. #4 steps up looking for the post pass to the block. #3 is taught to always catch and face the basket, look inside and then opposite (to #1 on the left wing).

3 Al Rayyan Triple Post Zone Offense If #3 cannot receive the pass in the high post area, he quickly steps out to the top of the key area to receive the pass for ball reversal.

4 Al Rayyan Triple Post Zone Offense Once #3 reverses the ball, the post movements are always the same. The low post player, #5, cuts across the lane to the left low block and then steps out to the short corner area. #3, after passing to #1 on the left wing, cuts down to the space in the low block just cleared out by #5. #4 flashes to the high post area.

5 Al Rayyan Triple Post Zone Offense Anytime the ball enters the low post, in this diagram #3, the high post player is taught to dive to the basket. This will cause the defense to colapse to help on #4 and if he is not open, will allow for the skip pass on the back side of the floor to #2. The post players are again taught to turn and face the basket on the catch, look inside (to #4) and then opposite (to #2).

6 Al Rayyan Triple Post Zone Offense Once #2 has the ball, the movent to the other side remains the same for the post players. The high post player (who just dived) continues to the low post on the right side. #3 cuts across the lane and then steps to the short corner area. #5 now flashes to the high post area.

7 Al Rayyan Triple Post Zone Offense At anytime, the post player flashing into the post has the option to stop and back screen the backside defender. #1 would look to spot up while #2 reads the screen and skips the ball over the top of the defense to #1.

8 Al Rayyan Triple Post Zone Offense Once again, if #5 does not or cannot receive the ball in the high post, he will always step out to the top of the key for ball reversal. This is a must as we do not have anyone on top to reverse the ball. In this diagram we see #5 stepping out and receiving the pass from #2. #5 reverses the ball to #1 on the left wing and the rotations continue. #4 moves across the lane to the low post and then out to the short corner area. #5 cuts down to the low post area. #3 flashes to the high post area, or again, he could back screen the zone trying to free #2 on the right side for a skip pass back from #1.
