Brief "Hook & Look"

- Cutter should "hook and look" in the m iddle of the cut. This is a standard R&R rule versus zones. Instead of going all the way through, cutter pauses in the soft center of the defense, hooks & looks towards the ballhandler, and then continues with his cut if he doesn't get the ball. - 2 m an fills the open perim eter spot closest to ball - 5 m an fills nex t open perim eter spot closest to the ball - Cutter fills out to the open perim eter spot.
