Chris Mack – Xavier Musketeers Offense
Curl Rip High Pop
2 and 3 start in a stack on the left block. 3 loops around 2 and cuts out to the wing. Once 3 clears, 2 sets a rip back screen in the lane for 5. 1 dribbles left looking for 3 or 5 inside. If neither is open, 4 steps over to set a ball screen for 1. 1 drives from left to right as 4 pops, 2 moves out to the corner, and 5 steps over to the ball side block. 1 looks to turn the corner for a shot or to kick out to 2 in the corner if x2 helps on the drive. If 1 hits 4 on the pop, 4 can shoot, pass to 3 and follow with a ball screen, or dribble at 3 to give him the ball with a dribble handoff on the wing. By switching it up, it makes the offense less predictable.
