PnR: Split to Drive

In basketball, the "Split to Drive" is a tactic used during the pick & roll. When the guard over-forces the ball handler towards the screen, offensive players adapt. Here, the guard employs a low crossover, splitting the screen diagonally while extending alongside the ball-side foot. This strategic response counters the defensive pressure effectively, allowing for a drive opportunity. While splitting screens is often ineffective, this scenario presents a legitimate chance for the "Split to Drive" maneuver to shine as an offensive tactic.
