Step 1
Decide what shot you need to improve the most. This can include three-pointers, jump shots, set shots and free throws. Concentrate on the one you need the most help with but do not forget about the shots you are already very good at.
-
Step 2
Find shooting drills. Some good drills can be found on the Shooting Drills website, or by asking your basketball coach. Make a checklist of these drills so that you can easily follow them.
-
Step 3
Practice. The only way to improve your shooting and techniques is to practice for at least a couple of hours on a daily basis. Make each shot you are practicing at least 100 times before moving on to another drill. Repetition is a great teacher for your mind and a perfect way to develop muscle memory as well.
-
Step 4
Choose a shooting technique that is comfortable and productive for you. Use this same technique with each shot you take, and try not to waiver from this.
-
Step 5
Try your new shooting technique in a game and see how much difference it makes for you and your team. Continue your practice schedule. You can never have too much shooting practice.
