INTERMEDIATE POWER PLAYS

12A. Behind The Net - "Point Player Dunk"

• The point player passes to the opposite-handed shooter and then cuts through the middle, eventually stopping behind the net. 

• As this is happening the shooter with the ball passes from shooter-to-shooter, with the opposite shooter then dragging toward the soft spot and passing to the player behind the net (making it look like a shot). 

• The point player then dunks the ball; ideally a player with long reach and/or good hands (Option #1).  

• Another variation of this play is for the point player to drag toward the strong-side shooter (who seals for them) and make the pass to the player behind the net.
  

• Note:  This play only works in Leagues where dunking is not against the rules.

12B. Behind The Net - "Crease Player Dunk"

• The point player passes to the strong-side shooter and as they are receiving the pass back, the weak-side crease player sneaks behind the net. 

• The point player then passes to the weak-side shooter who makes it look like they are going to shoot but instead passes to the crease player behind the net for a dunk on the far-side of the net (Option #1).  

• If the timing of this play is off and/or no dunk is available, players get into a "Freelance" offense.
  

• Note:  This play only works in Leagues where dunking is not against the rules.
