Two wings (2 and 3) positioned in the corners.
Two interior players (4 and 5) near the free-throw line, ready to set screens.

Steps:

Wheel Motion: The point guard (1) passes to a wing (2 or 3) and cuts to the opposite corner.
Cross Screens: The interior players (4 and 5) set screens for the opposite wing to cut toward the top of the key and receive a pass.
Shot Option: If the wing has an open shot, they take it. If not, they quickly pass the ball.
