DEFENDING THE DOUBLE STAGGERED

First and foremost, we must always remember that good defense on the screen will start with great ball pressure. If you are guarding the ball, you are rushing the quarterback and you can’t allow her to “see the court.” Diagram #1 shows a basic double staggered screen.

◄We want the player guarding the first screen, set by #4 (D in this instance) to loosen to the hole. She is responsible for either post slipping a screen and going to the basket.

◄We want the player guarding the top screen, set by #5 (E in this instance) to step out in such a way that she “disrupts” or "extends" the cut by #2.

◄Finally, the player defending the cutter (C in this instance) is tagging. That means she is getting directly behind the cutter — so close that she will run into her if she stops — and tagging her throughout her cut.
