One of the more common screen plays we run is setting up and attacking the the king (square 4) from the second square. Player one will move over to the middle of the court with his back to the target square while being careful not to step over any lines. Player two will have to adjust his position to try and keep the first player between himself and the king.
If the king moves to his left to get a better view, the attacker can try one of two shots. One is a short pass that will go between the screener's legs and land just past the line. This usually takes some subtle communication with the screening player. This is why the cooperating players are face to face to begin with. Another reason is in case the pass is too high, player two will be able to see it and move out of the way or make any other kinds of adjustments. The second option is a straight shot with very little arc to the king's back right corner Photo by Alex "Zeke" Ibardaloza.
