Nick Nurse's SECRET Play Gets Maxey WIDE OPEN Every Time (Lakers Had No Answer!)
Basketball
Nick Nurse is a genius for bringing back this old Spurs "Loop" play for Maxey. Watch how he burns through FOUR Lakers defenders using three consecutive screens to get wide open on the right wing. The Lakers switched everything but it didn't matter - when Maxey reads the defense cheating over that final pin down and flares into open space, it's game over. He's shooting 59.1% from that right wing spot on open looks! The energy expenditure is worth it when you're getting shots this clean. What I love most is how Maxey hops back a couple feet after the screen to turn a slightly open shot into a wide open one. That's high basketball IQ right there.
