Basketball, b-ball, hoops—these are all names for one of the most popular games in America. Whether it’s professional play in the NBA, college games, the local high school team, a friendly round of one-on-one round, or an outdoor street game at the playground court, basketball is exciting and fast-paced, pitting player against player and skill against skill. Having strong fundamentals like dribbling, passing, and shooting is the key to the success of any aspiring player or team. Though flashy dunks, trick shots, and off the wall dribbling antics are fun to watch and have their place, they often create a “superstar” mentality that ultimately hurts the team if not put in check. What makes basketball great is the combination of individual talent and team strategy, ultimately producing a match that’s sure to keep you on the edge of your seat.
If you can't shoot in basketball, then you won't be able to score. If you can't score, you can't win games. In this series, an experienced basketball coach will teach you the proper, form, stance, backspin and follow-through for shooting a basketball. You will learn how to shoot jump shots and well as free throws. Watch these videos and improve your basketball shooting skills.
