UCLA Offense - Example of basic high post action within the UCLA offense

PASSO 1

Each player is located strategically to maximize effectiveness in the first phase of the attack.

PASSO 2

To start, 2 receives the ball from 1 and following that, 5 receives the ball from 2.

Next, 4 backdoor cuts to the basket and could receive the ball from 5 if that is open. If 4 is not open, then 4 continues the cut towards the left side low post block.

PASSO 3

Following that, 3 cuts to the basket via the back screen set by 4, receives the ball from 5, and could score at the basket if open.

If 3 is not open, then 3 could continue the cut out towards the right side corner. Also, 4 could fill the left side wing after setting the screen.

PASSO 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.
