One of the best teams out west and number 2 seed in the NCAA Tournament Gonzaga has excelled above and beyond expectations. To go along with a skilled group of players, they have designed a number of sets that takes advantage of their size along with their strong perimeter shooting. The set below is a go to that has earned Gonzaga point after point throughout the season.

People always wonder how teams like Northern Iowa, Butler, Utah, and Wichita St are able to compete and be so successful against high level competition. After watching this set by Northern Iowa in the tournament, it is easy to see why. This play may be simple but it makes defenders rotate in a way they are not used to rotating or ever practicing. Because of this, easy points are gained throughout the game and these teams are hard to guard.

With lower level athletes on different levels of basketball, coaches have to find ways to create shots for players that are not able to do so alone. Many Division II teams have a couple players that can knock down the 3 but are unable to show their talents because their shot is too slow or they are never in the correct position to shoot. "D2 Elevator" is the perfect play to solve these issues for a high percentage shooter.
