Coach ,
This week I am focused on developing some ideas for future ATO plays for my teams.
As you know ATO's are special plays and actions teams run after time-outs or can also be run in a dead-ball situation.
Typically, the plays are designed to get a specific player an open shot or it’s a counter to a play being ran based on how the defense has been guarding the action or based on a scouting report..
Here are a few ATOs that I like.
Coach Luka Bassin breaks down a play from Euroleague powerhouse Fenerbahce in this clip being run from a sideline situation for a 3.

EOG SLOB FLARE Quick Hitter for 3 (Fenerbahce)
Zak Boisvert discusses the use of ghost screens and how this is an effective counter vs. teams who like to switch ball screens.
Former G League coach Jimmy Bradshaw shares some ATOs designed for a good shooter in this clip.
Southern Miss head coach Jay Ladner shares a lob play, which many coaches like to use as an ATO action.
Another top coach from Europe, Aito Garcia Reneses uses a pin down screen for his post in this action.
If you are looking for a good course that gives you an overview of ATO’s, I highly recommend ATO Plays-Best Sets and Practices by Adam Spinella.
Always be growing,
