Learn How To Shoot A Basketball

I never knew there was a particular way to do this until one of my kids told me they learned the proper way to shoot a basketball in P.E. class at school. I just figured you aimed and threw the ball. So here it is coming to you from How To Do Things.

1. Hold the ball in your dominant hand with elbow directly underneath. Your non-dominant is held beside the ball and just guides it.

2. Aim just behind the front of the rim, do not aim at the backboard. Only when making an angle shot from the side of the court, aim at the box on backboard.

3. Bend knees, then use your legs to give the shot power, not your arms.

4. Follow through with shooting hand after releasing the ball with a flick of the wrist.

5. Run toward basket to put yourself in positon for an offensive rebound.

Have fun!
