This resource was created to help coaches install a high-scoring motion offense in just one practice. We’ll
start out with a 3-part drill progression to help teach spacing, cutting, passing and screening.

5 Out Motion Offense
Once you have those concepts down, we’ll start practicing them as part of a “5-out” motion offense. Put all
5 players outside the 3-point line to maximize floor spacing. You can call any of these plays for your team to
run, or have them read and react to what the defense is giving them.

Play 3 SCREEN AWAY
1. Player 2 and player 3 v-cut to get open.
2. Player 1 will pass to player 2, then fake the
give and go cut. Fig 1 Fig 2 Fig 3
3. Instead of cutting through the lane, he cuts
across the key and sets a screen for Player 1 passes to 2, then 3 comes off the 4 slides up to fill
screens away for 3 screen, cuts to the the wing. 1 returns
3. basket, and fills the to top of key
4. Player 3 uses a misdirection step, then uses corner
the screen to come across the lane at the
free throw line area.
5. Player 3 does not receive the ball and
continues his cut through the key and to
the left baseline.
6. Player 1 returns to the top of the key.
7. Player 4 fills the wing spot.
8. Player 3 fills the corner spot vacated by
player 4.
The final play is a wrinkle you can put in once your kids have all the rotations down and
are comfortable running the first 3 plays. You can use this as a “special” play to call after a
timeout or at the end of a game.
