** For simplicity we show all our plays in the traditional sense:

1 = point guard
2 = shooting guard
3 = small forward
4 = power forward
5 = center

However, we absolutely do not recommend staying in that box. If you see a play that we have illustrated for a shooting guard but you’d rather put your great shooting center in that role then that’s what you should do. Adaptability will be key to your success as a coach.
