Halfway through the season, Kansas State coach Frank Martin installed a five-out motion offense, which is paying dividends for the Wildcats.

The Wildcats often start the offense by feeding the ball to the high post, and then it begins to look like a version of the triangle offense.

The person who passes it to the elbow then cuts off the ball, giving the post player the option to either hand it off, square up and shoot a jump shot, dribble-drive or pass it back out.

"I felt that was a better-suited offense for us," said Jacob Pullen. "I think it helps us out with our mismatches. It really makes teams pick who they want to guard and spreads out the court so teams can't double me without leaving the open shooter."

Martin said part of the reason for the transition to the new offense was because of his team's youth, which had to learn how to move without the ball in their hands in this motion offense.
