UCLA Offense examples
STEP 1
Initial positions are set so the team can move in a coordinated way and create space.
To begin, 1 executes a dribble entry towards the right side wing. When that occurs, 2 executes a zipper cut to the top via the pin down screen set by 4.
After that, 2 receives the ball from 1 while 4 self replaces at the right side high post elbow. Also, as that action occurs, 3 utilizes a V-cut to get open near the left side wing area.
STEP 2
To begin, 1 executes a dribble entry towards the right side wing. When that occurs, 2 executes a zipper cut to the top via the pin down screen set by 4.
After that, 2 receives the ball from 1 while 4 self replaces at the right side high post elbow. Also, as that action occurs, 3 utilizes a V-cut to get open near the left side wing area.
Next, 2 dribbles toward the left slot area and following that, 3 receives the ball from 2. Afterwards, 2 executes a UCLA cut to the basket via the UCLA screen set by 5.
From there, 2 could receive the ball from 3 and score at the rim if that is open. Conversely, if 2 is not open, then 2 could cut to the left side low post area while 1 drifts to the empty right side corner.
STEP 3
Next, 2 dribbles toward the left slot area and following that, 3 receives the ball from 2. Afterwards, 2 executes a UCLA cut to the basket via the UCLA screen set by 5.
From there, 2 could receive the ball from 3 and score at the rim if that is open. Conversely, if 2 is not open, then 2 could cut to the left side low post area while 1 drifts to the empty right side corner.
Next, 3 dribbles toward the middle of the court via the ball screen set by 5. Furthermore, after the ball screen action occurs, 2 cuts to the previously occupied left side wing area via a down screen set by 5.
At the same time, 1 cuts to the right side wing area via a wide pin down screen set by 4. After that, 1 could receive the ball from 3 and take the open jump shot or 2 could receive the ball instead and take the open jump shot as well.
Also, if 2 receives the ball but does not take the jump shot, then 4 could fill the vacant right side corner.
STEP 4
Next, 3 dribbles toward the middle of the court via the ball screen set by 5. Furthermore, after the ball screen action occurs, 2 cuts to the previously occupied left side wing area via a down screen set by 5.
At the same time, 1 cuts to the right side wing area via a wide pin down screen set by 4. After that, 1 could receive the ball from 3 and take the open jump shot or 2 could receive the ball instead and take the open jump shot as well.
Also, if 2 receives the ball but does not take the jump shot, then 4 could fill the vacant right side corner.
From that point, 5 could receive the ball from 2 and then the post split action could occur. Therefore, 3 could cut to the left wing via an away screen set by 2.
Furthermore, 2 could slip the screen and cut to the basket as well. Afterwards, 3 could receive the ball from 5 and take the open jump shot. Alternatively, 2 could receive it instead and score at the rim.
On the other hand, if 5 decides to score with a low post move, then 2 could fill the right corner, 4 the right wing, and 1 the top to create floor balance.
STEP 5
From that point, 5 could receive the ball from 2 and then the post split action could occur. Therefore, 3 could cut to the left wing via an away screen set by 2.
Furthermore, 2 could slip the screen and cut to the basket as well. Afterwards, 3 could receive the ball from 5 and take the open jump shot. Alternatively, 2 could receive it instead and score at the rim.
On the other hand, if 5 decides to score with a low post move, then 2 could fill the right corner, 4 the right wing, and 1 the top to create floor balance.
