Basketball Drills: Step Up Screen Series with Joe Abunassar

Written by Jeremy Rushing | Mar 4, 2022 4:00:00 PM

In this drill from NBA skills trainer and IMPACT Basketball founder Joe Abunassar, work on a unique type of screen scenario meant to neutralize how defenses are countering the traditional screen and roll game.

"It's a different angle on a ball screen that's being used because most teams...they're playing the ball screen down to the baseline," says Abunassar. "So teams have adjusted their screening angle."

 

Step Up Screen Series

  1. Guard starts with ball at the top of the key
  2. Forward or Center comes up to set the step-up screen on sideline side
  3. Guard comes off screen while screener pops
  4. Screener then re-screens toward the middler
  5. Guard comes off re-screen and screener pops to corner
  6. Guard passes to screener for corner jumpshot
