“Peel switches,” which can often blend with a “veer” or “veerback switch” when they take place around the rim, often are impactful, but with a caveat.

Jordan Ott as well as Collin Gillespie spoke in detail about just how effective these can be, when presented appropriately, a few months back.

Stephen PridGeon-Garner is here to speak in detail to their process, and how this particular switch they’re able to flip, when teams get caught in their defensive web, is a flow stopper. Dive into the details of their defensive process as well as peel switches, in this Study.
