Shooting Technique 1. Be ready to receive a pass for a shot by having your hands up at chest level, ready to receive a pass and calling for the ball (“ball!”) Step in to the pass when receiving a pass for the shot Square up to the target (backboard or basket) Feet should be pointed at the target, shoulder width apart, and slightly staggered (righties with left foot slightly forward, lefties with right foot slightly forward) Move ball quickly to the shot pocket beside your head (not above, behind, in front of your face) aligning the seams of the basket to allow for monitoring of backspin during the shot Ball should rest on your shooting hand’s fingertip pads, with fingertips spread to comfortably balance the ball with one hand, with a gap between the middle of your palm and the ball Off/balance/guide hand should be on the side of the ball, should not add force or spin to the shot, and should always come off the ball first when shooting Shooting elbow points forward, not out and extends along with your shooting wrist in a straight-line to the target as your body uncoils during the shot Flex/bend your knees Release the ball on the way up just before the top of your jump using your legs for upforce; land back in the same spot Make sure you follow through on every shot (shooting wrist should be extended and floppy, fingers pointed at the rim); hold your follow-through position until the ball goes through the basket The ball should come off your hand with lots of symmetrical backspin Keep your eyes on the target (basket) before and during the shot, don’t follow the flight of the ball Remember, power for the shot comes from your wrists and legs, not your arms Know your range (spots where you can make 6 of 10 consistently in practice at game speed) 16. Always practice shooting at GAME SPEED Kingswood High School – Fall Shooting Program

Low Post Offense Tips Keep your center of gravity low by getting WIDE and getting LOW by bending knees and having feet greater than shoulder width apart Provide a target to receive the entry pass by having hands up at chest level (defense playing behind you) or a lead hand out and up providing a target (defense fronting or siding you) Demand the entry pass from the wing by calling “Ball” Use Drop Step to get lead shoulder and lead foot by your defender and put him on your back Make quick, strong, explosive moves Re-post from time to time by taking two half steps back (one left, one right) after returning the ball to the wing if the initial scoring opportunity does not present itself Always follow up a missed shot in a game, practice, or drill with a strong two hand layup Kingswood High School – Fall Shooting Program
