Syracuse Basketball Play

This is a good man to man basketball play used by Syracuse to isolate the number 5 man one on one with his defender. With the lane cleared out number 2 can lop the basketball to five cutting to the basket. If the option is not open number 3 should be open in the corner after 4 sets the pick. For this basketball play to work number 4 needs to be away from the lane so his man won't be in position to give help on the lob to 5.
