Spain Variations - Charleston

Horns Out

Charleston ran a ton of Spain variations in their matchup with San Diego State and considering how often Spain action worked, it made sense. The normal variation out of Horns Out starts off with a player clearing over the top to the opposite wing.

Then the ballside corner cuts in and sets the backscreen on the ballscreener.

If you want to know more about Spain pick and roll, I dive deep into it here:

I thought these sets couldn’t get much more fun, but seeing Charleston pull this one off was great.
