2-3 Zone Defense

The 2-3 Zone Defense is a defensive strategy used in basketball as an alternative to man-to-man defense. It is referred to as the 2-3 because of its formation on the court, which consists of two players at the front of the defense (and closer to half court) and three players behind (and closer to the opposing team's basket).
