Coaching Points

  • Slip timing is everything — release the screen the instant the defender commits to fight through it
  • Roll hard and fast to the goal — the slip works because it's unexpected
  • Ball handler must sell the screen-use first so the defender commits to defending it
  • Delivery to the slipping screener must be low and leading — into the run
  • If the slip is read early, convert it to a normal screen-and-roll
