- another type of leading run, attacker may use is screened receipt: technique where receiving player protects the ball which is passed to them by placing their body between ball & defender marking them.
- diff between screened receipt & posting up is that receiver collects ball facing towards the direction they are shooting in as opposed to facing away from direction in which they are shooting
- can combine posting up with a screened lead - this technique sees players off the ball leading in oppoding ways & working off one another's leads
Exercise
- player with ball under pressure
- receiver makes a screened receipt from left to right away from defender & collects ball & continues run
Alternative: include a post up (1st attacker does a leading run by screened receipt. But, doesnt receive ball, so 2nd player involved and receives ball after posting up)
- ball must be passed & received on an angle
- must keep moving - can open up passing lanes
