Call Flex-Throwback Smash 5 when you want to involve your 5 as a wing receiver after the initial Flex cut clears the lane. Your 1 enters to 4, the baseline screen frees 3 to the opposite low post, and then 4 cuts to the wing and 1 fills the top to give you a new ball-handler and a reset. It layers a second-side scoring threat right on top of the primary Flex action.
