To help you understand the play, please follow the key below.

The players start in a 1-2-2 formation. The post players will start at the high posts and the wings will start at the low posts.
4 and 5 will down screen for 2 and 3.
As this is happening, 2 and 3 should be setting up their defenders with a good fake and then cut shoulder to shoulder off the screener.
1 will dribble either right or left (right in this case) and pass to the wing coming off the screen.

When 2 receives the pass from 1, 4 should clear out to the corner.
As this is happening, 5 should move to the middle post area looking for a pass from 2.
1 will set a screen for 3 who will go to the top of the key.

If 2 does not pass the ball to 5 in the post, they should quickly pass out to 3 at the top of the key.
As this is happening, 1 will set a screen for 5.
3 will dribble the ball to the left and look for 5 coming off 1's screen.

If 5 does not get the pass, they should clear out to the corner.
1 will then set a screen for 4.
4 should come off of 1's screen and go directly into the lane, looking for a pass from 3.
3 should pass to 4 if they are open.
