Setting Screens

 Set your screen on the defender's numbers (head hunt). 

 Communicate -- call the ball handler's name to let her know you're coming to set a screen for her. 

 Come to a jump stop with your feet shoulder-width apart. 

 Bend your knees when setting the screen. 

 Place your hands in front of your midsection. 

 Set the screen approximately an arm's length away from the defender. 

 Be firmly set and ready for contact. 

 Hold all screens for a "two count."
 
 Move with purpose - make reads and react depending on how your defender gives help on the ball.

 Roll to the basket with the ball handler facing the ball.
