2 WAYS FOR PLAYERS TO GENERATE MORE POWER INTO YOUR SHOT ⬇️⬇️⬇️
1). GETTING OFF THE GROUND QUICKER INTO YOUR SHOT: Regardless if you are shooting off 1-2 or Hop footwork, we generate more force by rapidly getting off the ground preferably towards the front of our feet.
2). LETTING THE BALL LEAD YOU INTO YOUR UPWARD MOTION: this is not a concept strictly for 1 motion shooters. For mature shooters, we can create more fluidity (Not stopping the ball or slowing down the ball from catch to release). How high we jump does not always mean “More power” if a shooter is releasing the ball at the apex of their jump. We generally want our hips and knees still loaded on the release “On the way up”
