Angle 1: Straight on- Camera under basket.  

• Is the ball brought straight up on the shooting hand side? Yes, the ball is brought straight up along with my arm.
• Are finger, elbow, knee and toe in the same plane? Yes, they are in-line with each other when I released the ball.
• Do the shooting fingers finish pointing down towards your forward foot? Yes, all my fingers are together and are pointed towards my forward foot, with the exception of my pinky finger which goes way off to the side.
• Does your elbow finish near or above your eyes? My elbows finishes further away from my face, causing it to not finish above/near my eyes, but around my nose area instead. I think this is caused by where I used to shoot the ball, from the side of my head near my mouth.
• Does the off- hand come of the ball just before release? My off-hand does come off the ball before release, however, it comes off facing the opposite direction and then adjusts back into a position where it faces my shooting hand, which I think causes the ball to go either left or right.

Angle 2: Rear View- Camera is directly behind shooter.  

• Is the shooting hand directly behind the ball with the two shooting fingers in the middle?
• Is the off-hand at 9 or 3 o’clock? The off-hand follow-throughs at 1 o'clock.
• Is the ball released with one-hand? Yes, it is, but it is pushed.
• Is the off-hand vertical at release?  Or is it rotated towards the ball?  What would this mean? The off-hand is vertical at release. This means that the ball is going straight.

Angle 3: Side View- Camera on shooting hand side.  

• Is the wrist cocked before the release? Yes, it is.
• Is the footwork consistent? Yes, they both land and get off the ground at the same time.
• Is the ball kept in front of the body? Yes, it is.
• When the ball is released are the elbows near or above the eyes? The elbows are above my eyes when the ball is released.

Conclusion:

In conclusion, I feel like in order to fix my shot, I need to keep the foundations of my shot (arm, leg, elbow, etc.) all aligned and to take my time to order to get a good shot.
