STEP 4

Next, 2 cuts to the basket, receives the handoff from 5, and then scores at the basket. If 2 is not open to receive the handoff, then 1 cuts to the wing via the flare screen set by 4, receives the ball from 5 and takes the open jump shot.

Also, as an alternative option, 3 could receive the ball from 5 for another jump shot option if the defender of 3 decides to help one pass away when 2 cuts to the basket.
