3 steps

Pick & roll play between 5 and 1, starting with the point guard at the central perimeter, 5 at the free throw line, and 2 and 3 at 45º on opposite sides.

5 sets a screen for 1 while 3 and 4 occupy the corners to create space and a potential pass.
As 1 drives, 2 occupies the central area and 5 rolls to gain position behind the defense.
1 shoots from the free-throw elbow or passes to 5 in the low post.

STEP 1

5 comes up to set a screen for 1, while players 3 and 4 occupy the perimeter corners to create space for the point guard and 5’s roll. Once 1 initiates the action, 2 moves up to fill his position.

STEP 2

1 shoots to the basket from the free-throw elbow or passes to the low post for 5 to finish inside. If help comes, 5 can kick out to the corners for a three-point shot.
