June 26, 2009, Newsletter Issue #404: Learn the Jumpshot
Tip of the Week
Make sure you have the proper, comfortable stance and balance. See the rim. Extend your wrist backwards. The basketball should rest on your fingerpads. Try to keep your elbow in and under the ball. Use your legs to get lift... the longer the shot, the more you use your legs. As you reach the peak of your jump, the ball should be coming out. Raise the ball smoothly and in one, fluid motion. Finish high with your arm to get good "arc" on the shot. Snap your wrist and hold that follow through to get the backspin you need for a "shooter´s touch".
