Jay Wright runs one of the most analytically efficient offenses in college basketball. His offense is very simple with apparently few sets in his arsenal. The simplicity benefits his players, and him in the end. The sets he does choose to run are unpredictable and flexible. He is most famous for running the 4-out-1-in motion offense, where you’ll see two players tucked into the corners and two players on opposing wings, with a big man is down low initiating a lot of the action (more about this offense here). He also mixes in some 50 series (5 players on the perimeter) and the occasional horns set (2 screeners on either side of the primary ball handler at the top of the key).
