Here are a couple of sets for you to use in attacking the 1-3-1 or 1-2-2 zone.
This play works really well versus the 1-3-1 zone it gets you a possible open corner 3 by screening the defender that guards the corner X1. If not open 4 then screens X5 the player who would guard ball side block.
This plays works best versus a 1-2-2 Zone
