Shooter

2. To become a professional player, a better shooting skill is
very important.

3. A professional basketball player always focuses on how to
shoot better.

4. The regular and frequent practice schedule can be helpful
for achieving a better shooting skill.

5. There are different ways to improve your shooting
accuracy.

6. Locate the rim as the target :-
The habit of locating the rim improves your shooting percentages as
your brain will calculate the distance and makes your mind to focus
on it.

7. As per coaches--you should always go for a good follow
through to solve the shooting problems.
Handle The Follow Through
properly

8. The simple follow through movement
helps you to maintain a good posture
and right techniques for best shooting.

9. Use of wrist movements :-
The wrist movements always play a vital roll in shooting. If you
maintain a tensed wrist then your follow through will be
unskillful so as the shooting.

10. But when your wrist is relaxed, it will give the best
shooting outcome with proper follow through drill.

11. Practice to improve ball rotation :-
The shooting skill can be improved by regular practice but the
straightness only can be improved when you focus on the ball
rotation.

12. So while practicing , you should use the colored basketball
that will help you to see the rotation and direction of the
ball.

13. Practice for optimal Arc :-
As per rule of thumb----- “finish your follow through with
the rim clearly visible beneath the fingers of your shooting
hand”

14. As per studies, most of the shots
bounce out of basket if you miss just
a fraction also.

15. So practicing the optimal arc like a 35 degree arc gives 6
inch of margin to the ball, that clears the rim without
hitting it.

16. But when you opt out 45 degree arc, it delivers a shooting
error with 3inch margin where the ball bounces back by
hitting the rim.

17. Follow a right pattern of shot alignment :-
When you spend extra time in practice that harnesses your skill
to become a master of the game drills like shooting back and
forth, and trying to have the ball bounce close to the line etc

18. These all improvised techniques help you to tune up the
control and precision of the shot.

19. Develop balancing skill :-
The shooting drill always needs a proper balance and foot work.
But without practice and a proper stance no-one can achieve
balance.

20. When you practice, make sure that your momentum should
towards the basket on every catch that helps to establish a
good balance.

21. Maintain a ball-setting point:-
Every player have their setting points for delivering a better shot.
For instance --------- A player must be quick to get the ball to his
setting point and go for making it a right shot.

22. Make the shot Motion Balanced, Fluid, and
Consistent
The consistency of your feet, arms, set points and jump heights
are very essential for a good shot.

23. A fluid moment means a constant flow of movements from
start to finish.

24. Chart down your shot details
When you chart your shots, you will get a detail result of how
many fell shots, long shots, shots to the left and to the right
etc.

25. The above detail will help you to improvise your skills like
power, distance control,footwork, arm alignment etc..

26. These simple steps will improve your basketball shooting
percentage and will make you a better player.
