Angle 1: Straight on- Camera under basket.
On the shot the ball is brought up on my shooting side with one hand. My two shooting fingers kind of went off to the right after the release of the ball, messing up the follow through and causing the ball to not go straight. I released the ball at the right time but i need to work on finishing higher and bringing it up more on the side parallel with my shooting shoulder and knee instead of bringing it to my face.
Angle 2: Rear View- Camera is directly behind shooter.
The shooting hand is directly behind the ball in this angle and release just at the right time. i have my off hand in the right spot on the ball, on the side so it doesn't interfere with the ball but kind of guides it. I release the ball with just the shooting hand but I need to work on finishing higher and with my follow through towards the rim.
Angle 3: Side View- Camera on shooting hand side.
In this final angle my wrist is cocked but not early enough causing me to have to use more push with my arm instead of my legs. my footwork is consistent but i need to work on not turning my body after the shot. When i finish my shot it is in the perfect spot, my elbow finishes about chin level but i need to work on getting it higher.
Conclusion
In conclusion I have a good form but i need to work on my follow through and were i finish vertically and where i finish with my wrist after the release. I also have to better my power from my legs instead of my arms and i have to better my consistency and focus when shooting.

Christian's Shot Analysis
https://youtu.be/oZapsNHsnX0
Angle 1 (Straight on-under basket)
- In my first shot, I could notice that my shooting hand goes sideways towards my guide hand whilst shooting the ball and that it goes to the right when following through. I believe that it affects my shot negatively because it could make the ball go sideways either left or right upon my release. Another thing I noticed was that my guide hand would come off upon my release, which would support my shooting hand but come off just in time so that it doesn't negatively affect my shot.
Angle 2 (From the back)
- In this shot, I noticed that my guide hand slightly got in the way of my shooting motion and it caused the ball to go slightly off of my hand, making the shot go sideways. My hand finished high but it went towards my guide hand in the end. My elbow on my shooting hand was kind of sticking out as well. I need to work on being able to bring up the ball straight more consistently to avoid shooting the ball sideways.
Angle 3 (From the side)
- In my final shot angle, I bent my knees and made sure my arm and toe were in line with the basket. My guide hand wasn't in the way of my shot this time and I didn't finish as high with my shooting hand. I kept the ball near my shoulder but left enough space to be able to have a shooting window so that I can see the basket.
Things I need to work on
- Being more consistent on bringing the ball up straight
- Being more consistent on finishing high and making sure my guide hand doesn't in the way of my shot
- Practice form shooting more often to develop muscle memory to provide a more comfortable and consistent feeling with my shot
- Learn how to catch and shoot the ball in a fast and fluid motion

Nash shot analysis
Angle 1: Front view
From the first glance at my shot, I can see that I bring the ball up over my body when I could bring it up the outside of my body so my body doesn't interfere with my shot. As I release the ball I can that my elbow is sort of sticking out like a chicken wing which could affect how straight my shot is. After I release ball I can see my fingers are pointing down towards my foot. I could do a better job of leading with my index and middle finger so I have more control on my shot. I also notice that as I release the ball my elbow straightens out and finishes nice and high. When I'm bringing the ball up and just about to shoot my support hand lets go. I could do a better job of shooting with one hand as this could affect how much control I have over my shot.

Angle 2: Side View
Looking at my shot from the side, I notice a couple things. I do a good job of keeping the ball infront of my body and making a 90 degree angle with my arm. I could probably try to finish higher so I can become a better shooter against longer defenders. It's hard to tell if my wrist is cocked before the shot because I'm not receiving the ball via a pass but I can tell you that from past experience and other
people helping me with my shot, I can do a better job of cocking my wrist so make it a more smoother action. One thing I notice from this side angle is that my follow through is very quick. It almost seems like I am flicking my wrist too much which could affect my power and control. I want more of a nice smoother motion and release.

Angle 3: Rear view
Looking at my shot from the behind I can see that my off hand plays a big role in my shot. I do a great job of keeping it a 9 o'clock but fail to release it from the ball very quickly. From other people looking at my shot, they notice that on my pull-up my off hand starts to creep behind the ball so I start to shoot with two hands but very slightly. After release my off hand turns toward the outside of my body. This could means I'm being to reliant on that hand and giving it too much strength.This can cause the ball to either veer left or right(left in my case). At the end of my release I can see that I do a better job of releasing high than I first thought so that is something to be happy about.
Conclusion:
In conclusion I can say that my shot is not that bad. I can do a better job of releasing my off hand quicker so it doesn't affect my shot so much. I can also do a better job of widening my feet so I have a more balanced base. I would say that I do a good job of finishing high but need to control the ball more with my index and middle fingers. I didn't jump in the video but I can say that I need to use my legs more when I shoot, Late in games when I'm tired, I need to focus on using less arms and more legs.

Angle 1: From the Front
In my first shot, I noticed that my knee and my toe were in the same plane but my elbow was out making my shot goes more to the right. The ball was brought up straight with my fingers finishing down towards my foot. Before the release my guide hand that supports the ball came off in time giving my shooting hand the full control of the ball. My elbow finished above my eyes giving more arc to my shot.
Angle 2: From the Back
In this shot, I made sure that my toe, knee, hip, and elbow were in line, so the ball would just go straight. But I noticed that I didn't used enough legs, so I had to push the ball a little to get more power from my arm. My shooting hand was behind the ball with my offhand at 9 o'clock, I also noticed that I should start practicing with the shooting strap because after releasing the ball, my off hand would start rotating towards the ball giving my shot the tendency to go to the left.
Angle 3: From the Side
In my third shot, I noticed that my foot work in all three were very consistent, but it can be improved by keeping my foot in the same place so I can go into my shot much faster. The ball was kept in front of my body with my elbow still out. Before the release my wrist was cocked back, making my shot hand directly behind the ball. Lastly my elbow was near my eyes giving my shot a good amount of arc.
-Things that need to be improved-
-Keeping my elbows in
-Using more legs so I don't have to get too much power from my arm
-Legs bent before the shot, so I can get a quicker release
-Fingers in the "cookie jar' for better arc.

Mo's Shot Analysis
Angle 1: In this angle for my shot, I am easily able to spot the clear mistakes I made. The ball was brought up straight however, it is slightly a bit too much on the ball hand side which can certainly be proved. During the shot I was sure that my elbow, knee and toe were in the same plane but due to the help of this video it was very to spot out that they are definitely not in the same plane with the elbow not aligned very well with the toes. From this angle I am happy to conclude, that my shooting fingers are pointing down towards my toes after finishing. My elbow finishes close to my eyes, although it can be concluded from this video that the elbow can finish more closer to the eyes. One of the things I've always taken pride in for my shot is that my off ball hand always comes off, however, the release of the off ball hand is too early.
Angle 2: This second angle was a well awakening shot for me because of the important aspects I am missing in my shot. First things formal, I don't like the way in the video my two shooting fingers aren't in the middle of the ball which needs to be worked on. The 9 o'clock position of the off-hand is clearly there which I am content with. I released the ball with one hand which is certainly a positive to take from this angle. The off-hand is vertical at release but it can be improved by making it more straight. The off-hand is a bit rotated towards the ball which could result in not a straight shot or a shot with uncomfortable arc in the shot.
Angle 3: In this third and last angle, I certainly got into the shot very smoothly with knees and wrist cocked and ready to shoot allowing me to go into the shot much faster. The footwork is very consistent, but it can be improved by staying for on my toes to get a faster release and also spreading my feet a bit apart in order to achieve more balance while shooting. The ball is kept well in front of my body with nothing to criticize in that point of my shot. The shot release just like in the previous angles wasn't to well. To elaborate on this, when the ball is released, the elbows are not too near the eyes, where they should be in an ideal shot. The release of the shot has to be higher or even above the eyes. I lean also too back making it kind of an awkward motion when shooting, therefore the back has to be slightly less leaned back.
Conclusion - To conclude this analysis, it can easily be seen that in many areas of my shot improvement is much needed. My elbow, knee and toe have to be more on a straight plane, something I have to adapt and make a habit. When releasing my shot I have to work on having elbow finish closer to my eyes. I have to make sure that I am not shooting more with just one hand because consistently in the videos my off-hand comes of the ball a bit too early cause an off balance shot. I must also work on the off-hand's positioning when the shot is released by working on not having the hand point towards the ball. The balance when shooting has to be worked on by doing little things like spreading my feet a bit more apart and not leaning too back while shooting. These are improvements that I can make in order to become a shooter with consistent form.

Gabie's Shot Analysis
https://youtu.be/WoHh7ryVty8
Angle 1:
In my shot, the ball isn't brought up straight, I bring the ball my left slightly then I go up. Even though I do this, my elbow, finger and knee are aligned in a straight line when I shoot the basketball, and when I shoot my fingers are pointing to my toes my follow-thru is at a good height. During my release my off hand comes off the ball so that it doesn't interfere with my shot.
Angle 2:
In my second shot, my hand is directly behind the basketball and my off hand is located at 9 o' clock of the basketball. When I release the ball, my off hand comes off and I shoot with one hand. My off hand is vertical at release this would mean that I would have good rotation when shooting.
Angle 3:
In the last angle, I noticed that my hand is not cocked before the release. In the video you cannot see my legs due to a poor camera man, In my personal experience my footwork is consistent, sometimes I need to hop to set my feet in the proper position. The basketball goes back when I cock the ball, the ball should always be in front of the basketball. When I release the basketball, my elbows are above my eyes giving me good ark.
Conclusion:
I have multiple things to improve on. I need to shoot on a straight plane and not bring the ball to my left. And I shouldn't bring the ball back when I release. These are the things to improve in order to become a better shooter.

Joseph Bolo Shot Analysis
Angle 1: Straight on
Looking at this angle, as I shot the basketball, the ball is brought up straight on the shooting hand side. My fingers, elbow, knee and toe are in the same plane and all facing/pointing to the basket. But after the shot my follow through was not pointing towards the basket or my foot, it was pointing to the right almost going sideways. My elbow finishes near my eyes and as I follow through it moves away. The off hand does come off the basketball but sometimes it still affects my shot.

Angle 2: Side view
From this angle, my wrist is cocked just a little bit but as I bring it up I cock it back again making my release slower.. The footwork looks good, the feet pointing towards the basket. The ball is in front of the body on the shooting hand side and my elbows finish near the eyes.

Angle 3: Rear view
At this angle, my hand is directly behind the ball using the shooting fingers. The off hand comes off as the shot goes but it goes to the right a little bit and it does not come off straight, it doesn't look like it affected the shot though but it should be fixed. The ball is released with one hand straight to the basket but the follow through again goes to the right. The spin of the release of the ball looks good having it vertical to my arm making the backspin consistent.
Conclusion
After watching my shot from three different angles, different perspectives, I have a better understanding of how my shot really looks and how to improve it. In my opinion, my shot looks good but there's the simple things, the small details I have to pay attention to. For one thing, I need to have my wrist cocked even more to make my release faster and ready to let it fly. For another, I have to take my off hand directly off the ball and not move my hand to the right a little bit and also my follow through should be pointing straight to the basket and not off to the side. Lastly, I need to just practice the same form over and over again and not change it if it does not go in, paying to the small details can make a big difference for me.

SHOOTING FORM VIDEO URL - https://youtu.be/yUpiKYugnoI
Angle 1: From this angle (Front camera angle) the way I shot the ball shows that my shooting hand side isn't very straight, it is a bit crooked, I need to work on form shooting to take away this bad habit. I think that the way I shoot is very straight besides my elbow. I tend to stick out my right elbow and even sometimes my left. But for the most of it my fingers, knees and toes are all in the same plane. When I release the ball my fingers are all in proper form and it perfectly points down towards my forward foot. My hand placement on the basketball is good but sometimes my off-hand doesn't come of the ball just before the release, in order to take away this bad habit I need to put up a lot of shots on the basketball court and lots of form shooting.
Angle 2: From this second angle (Back camera angle) my shooting hand is not directly behind the ball but it is close to being behind it, whenever I shoot the ball my shooting hand is usually directly behind the ball but it is not shown in my shooting form video. When I release the ball, my off-hand is following through with the ball. My shooting hand is the only hand that is releasing the ball. When the ball has been released my off-hand rotates towards the ball but sometimes it is vertical too which means that I need to get used to shooting with my off-hand vertical at release because shooting towards the ball basically means that you're shooting with two hands which is not good at all.
Angle 3: From this last angle (Side camera angle) it shows that my wrist is cocked before my release but my wrist is cocked too late and should be cocked way earlier than that. Whenever I shoot, my foot work and my foot placement is very consistent, but there's always room for improvement. The ball is kept in front of my body but it is not completely straight on. When the ball was released it clearly shows that I need to fix it because I tend to push the ball instead of actually shooting with my elbows near or above the eyes. If I put in enough work on my elbow placing, my shot will have way more arc and would a have a better chance of it going in.
From seeing myself shoot, it shows me that I need to put up more shots on the court and work on form shooting. They're is a lot of room for improvement but the main part I need to work on is my elbow placement, so that I could have more arc on my shot and a better chance of it going in and jumping higher when I shoot, so that I could improve my arc. Taking away bad shooting habits will take sometime to improve, but I am willing to fix my shot in order to be a very good shooter!

Ivan's shot analysis 1.
Shot analysis video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GRy8gSDJVgQ
Angle 1: From the front, under the basket.
In my first shot, I noticed that I don't bend my legs as much as I need to and that it causes me to rely more on my arms which leads me to have less control on my shot. I also noticed that my shooting arm isn't coming up straight, which increases the probability of my shot going to the side instead of straight ahead.
Angle 2: From behind.
In my second shot, I noticed that my off hand did not go away from the ball which means that im not shooting properly. And my shooting arm does not go up straight, I think this is because i use more of my arms than legs so i rely more on the strength of my arms than my wrist.
Angle 3: From the side.
In my last shot from the side, I realized that i don't jump as much as required to have a better shot, and that i don't go up straight and take time with my shot, it seems more of a quick release so i don't have as much control on my shot as i want to. And I don't follow through with my shot well.
Conclusion:
I have a lot to work on with my shot, starting from off hand coming away from the ball, using more legs and my shooting arm being straight when shooting.
Soks shot analysis
Angle 1- front view
In this first angle, you will be seeing a front view of my shot. at first glanced you can see that the ball is brought up on the right side of my body and straight up for my shot. Also if you look at my shot you can see that my fingers, elbow and my fingers point straight at the basket, nothing is out of place! As i shoot the ball, when you look at my shooting hand my fingers are pointed downwards and i finish high. If i could changed my shot and make it better, i would want to have my off hand come off the ball after i release.
Angle 2- side view
On this angle you can see that i cock my wrist just before i shoot. In this angle i didn't step into my shot, instead i just stood still and shot the ball. As i shoot the ball i keep the ball in front of my body at all time. Once i released the ball you can see my elbows being finished above my eyes.
Angle 3- rear view
In this angle you can see my hands directly behind the ball and as i finish i release the ball with 2 fingers. When you are watching the video, if you look at my off hand you can see that my off hand is at 9 o'clock. Once i released the ball you can see that i am shooting with one hand and that my off hand is coming off when i shoot. My off hand is vertical at released, this means that the ball is shooting straight and rotating backwards.
Conclusion-
If i were to improve my shot, i would practice more on stepping into my shot as i sometime travel when i get the ball. The next improvement i need to start working on is working on using my legs more instead of my arms, because i feel like i am just throwing the ball. The last improvement i need to work on is finishing higher or have more arc in my shot as i feel like my shot is a laser beam and that if i were to shoot a jumper the ball would just hit the tip of the rim.

As i shoot the ball i keep the ball in front of my body at all time. Once i released the ball you can see my elbows being finished above my eyes.
Angle 3- rear view
In this angle you can see my hands directly behind the ball and as i finish i release the ball with 2 fingers. When you are watching the video, if you look at my off hand you can see that my off hand is at 9 o'clock. Once i released the ball you can see that i am shooting with one hand and that my off hand is coming off when i shoot. My off hand is vertical at released, this means that the ball is shooting straight and rotating backwards.
Conclusion-
If i were to improve my shot, i would practice more on stepping into my shot as i sometime travel when i get the ball. The next improvement i need to start working on is working on using my legs more instead of my arms, because i feel like i am just throwing the ball. The last improvement i need to work on is finishing higher or have more arc in my shot as i feel like my shot is a laser beam and that if i were to shoot a jumper the ball would just hit the tip of the rim.
Kelley shot analysis
Kelley shot analysis.
Angle 1
I took the ball in my right hand and prepared for my shot. As I took the shot my finger, elbow, knee were all in the same plane and the ball was brought straight up on the shooting hand side. My elbow finished just near my eye and my off hand leaves the ball just as I release the ball.
Angle 2
During the second shot my shooting hand is under the ball which is something I need to work on but my two shooting fingers were in the middle. My off hand is at the 9 o'clock location on the ball. As I released the ball, the ball left on one hand. My off hand is tilted towards the ball after release which means the ball is being helped by the off hand.
Angle 3
Before I released the ball my wrist was cocked before my release. I would say that my footwork when shooting is usually consistent. As I'm doing the shooting motion the ball is kept in front of the body. when the ball is released my elbow was just under my eyes.
conclusion: the things I need to work on is lining my foot up with the knee, elbow, and hand. another thing i need to work on is getting my elbow near or above my eye. i also need to get my off hand vertical.
Jalen Basketball Shot Analysis
Angle 1: Straight on- Camera under basket.
From the footage, the ball is brought up from my stomach to shooting hand side, my finger, knee and toe are all in the same plane, and my shooting fingers point down towards my forward foot when I follow through. My elbow ends up around my eyes and my off hand comes off the ball just before my release. I need to improve bringing the ball up, keeping it on my shooting hand side. I also need to improve finishing my elbow above my eyes to improve my ark.
Angle 2: Rear View- Camera is directly behind shooter.
From this angle, we can see that my shooting hand is directly behind the ball with my shooting fingers in the middle, my off-hand is at 9 o'clock, and my guide hand comes off the ball just before release. When the ball is released, my off-hand is at a 45 degree angle towards the net. I need to improve my off-hand release, my hand must stay vertical so it doesn't interfere with the shot, the shooting strap could be of assistance.
Angle 3: Side View- Camera on shooting hand side.
As I grab the ball to rise for my shot, I don't cock my wrist before the shot. Unfortunately, my cameraman, Mr. Lajoie, lacks knowledge of camera angles, so he didn't get my footwork on camera. My feet consistently land with my right foot in front of the other. The ball is always kept in front of my body and when I release the ball, my elbow finished around my eyes. I need to improve my pre-shot steps, instead of just grabbing the ball, I should be set with my legs bent and my wrists cocked to get the most efficient release possible. Again, I need to finish my elbow above my eyes for better overall ark on my shot,
Things That Need To Be Improved:
- Finishing with my elbow above my eyes for better ark,
- Bringing the ball up on my shooting hand side.
- Keeping my guide hand vertical so there's no interference with my shot.
- Keeping my wrist cocked and legs bent before shot to have an efficient release.

Angle 1: On my straight on shot angle my ball is brought straight up on my shooting hand side (right side). All of my right side of my body is aligned when I shoot the ball. When i release the ball my fingers point down toward my right foot.My elbow finishes right around my eyes/ eyebrows. My hand off hand comes just off the ball on the last second of my shot.
Angle 2: On my rear view shot my shooting fingers are placed in the middle of the ball. My off hand stays on the ball till the very last second of my shot. The ball is released with one hand. My off hand goes rotated towards the ball then quickly to vertical this means that my off hand thumb is going with my shot.
Angle 3: On my final angle the side view my wrist is cocked before I shoot. My foot work is pretty consistent with my shoot. The ball is always kept in front of the body with my shot. When I finish my shot my elbows are near my eyes.
Conclusions: I find my shot consistent however I still could make improvements. I can work on taking my off hand off the ball earlier. Another thing I could change is not to push my thumb out when I shoot. My final thing is to maybe tuck my elbow in just a bit more. Overall I like my shot but I could still make some improvements.
Oliver's Shot Analysis
Angle #1: In front of the shooter:
In the first clip of my video, I was shooting a free throw. I brought the ball down with my knees bent, and then released with my elbows and knees faced toward the basket. My left foot was a ahead of my right foot by an inch. I released above my eyes and had my wrist, index and middle finger flicked down. My guide hand is also beside my shooting hand.
Angle #2: Behind the shooting arm:
In the second clip of my video, I shot another free throw but it was recorded from behind my shooting arm. I have a shooting window, and I finish with a follow through down, leading to a swish. You can partially see my guide hand staying along side my shooting hand. I also released above my eyes.
Angle #3: Full body shot:
In the third and last clip of my video, I got my hands ready, but I didn't get my knees bent so I can fully spring into my shot. I also have a two motion shot because I take a shot dip then raise up and release. I released above my eyes, flicked my wrist and the ball came off my index and middle finger. I also followed through with my shot.
What are things that I should work on?
- Getting my knees bent so I can fully spring up into my shot.
- Go straight into my release instead of having a pause, then releasing.
- Getting a higher elevation so I have higher arc on my shot.

Ryan's shot analysis
Angle 1 - Straight on- Camera under basket
When I bring up the ball I need to hold the ball a little more to the side instead of being right in front of me. My fingers, elbow, knee are not all on the same plane and need to be more straight. My off hand is a little straight when it comes off the ball. What's good about my shot is that my elbow finishes a little above my eyes and my hand pointed down towards my feet. I feel i should jump higher when i shoot.
Angle 2 - Rear view- Camera is directly behind shooter
My hand isn't fully under the ball and my follow through hand goes to the right and my fingers are pointing towards the right. Some good points about my shot is that my off hands come off the ball and that it's on the side of ball at the 9 o'clock. I feel I should jump higher when I shoot.
Angle 3 - Side view- Camera on shooting hand side
When I bring up the ball it's directly in front of me and my wrist is cocked before I released the ball.
My elbows and knees are lined up and when the ball is released my elbows are at eye level. When I shoot the ball I don't jump high enough.
Jade's Shot Analysis.
Angle 1: Straight on: Camera under basket.
In the first clip of my shot, I was shooting a free throw. I dribbled the ball twice in order to get a feel for the ball. I bent my knees in order to generate a bit more power into my shot. My right foot is ahead of my left foot in order to keep my right side straight. My release is above my eyes. I flicked my wrist, index and middle finger down. I took my guide hand off as I released to make sure that it doesn't interfere with my shits trajectory.
Angle 2: Side Shot: Camera in the side.
In the second shot, the camera shows my whole body shooting. Before I shot I bent my knees. Although I bent my knees, it feels as if my shot didn't have enough lift. This might be because I didn't jump as high for my jumper. The ball was brought up from my crotch area to my head, to try and generate a rhythm.
Angle 3: Behind: Camera behind the shooting arm.
In the second clip of my shot, I shot another free throw but it was recorded from behind my shooting arm. I try to leave a window in order to have a good look at the hoop, before I shoot. My hand is behind the ball in order to gather more power behind my shot. My off hand seems to be above the ball rather than the side. This can cause some harm to my shot as it can alter my shot. The ball is released with one hand.
What are some things you can improve on?
Some things I can improve on are as follow:
- I need to get a higher elevation for my shot. Which means I need to use my legs more for my shot. I had realized I've been relying on my arms way too much.
- Having my off hand not interfere with my shot. Looking at my shot I can see that sometimes my off hand interferes with my shot, which can alter my shot.
- Lastly, my shot release is too high, and is pointed towards the sky rather than the rim.

Angle 1: Rear View - Camera is Directly Behind Shooter
In my first shot, my shooting hand is directly behind the ball with the two shooting fingers pointing upwards, in the middle.The off-hand is at about 8 o'clock on the ball when it should be at 9. I released the ball partially with my off hand when I should only use my shooting hand. The off hand ended up in a horizontal position at release which means that my shot may have been crooked as off-hand interference had occurred. The shooting hand should only be used.
Angle 2: Straight On - Camera Under Basket
In my second shot, my arm was just a little too far to the left of my body when it should be more straight, in alignment with my body. My finger, elbow, knee and toe are not in the same plane. My elbow had ended up above my eye level, however I had taken my shooting form down too fast. My fingers point down towards my feet as I end my shot and my off-hand comes off the ball upon release. Again, I have used my off-hand to shoot the ball.
Angle 3: Side View - Camera on Shooting Hand Side
In my third shot, My wrists are cocked back before release. This can cause the ball to create an arc through the air for better accuracy. My feet are in the same line with each other when the left foot should be just back from the right. The ball is kept in front of the body the entire time and when the ball is released, my elbows lie just below my eye level. My off-hand is used to shoot the ball again.
Conclusion: Thoughts and Improvements On Shooting
What I have noticed through analyzing my three shots is that my off-hand is often used to help me shoot the ball. I should be using only my shooting hand to shoot as I take my other hand off the ball in a vertical plane. I also noticed that I take my shooting form down too fast as I should keep it until the ball touches the hoop. The last point that I seen through all of my shooting positions is that I need to use more of an arc with my shot so that I can have a more accurate shot at the hoop.

Nina shot analasys
Angle 1: Straight on- Camera under basket.
While taking my shot the ball is brought up on the shooting hand side. Also my finger, elbow, knee and toe are in the same plane but I could have pointed my elbow in towards me more to have it more aligned with my knee and foot. My shooting fingers don't finish pointing completely down, they start off pointing down and at the very last second they kind of flick to the side. After releasing the ball my elbow finishes above eyes and my off- hand comes off the ball just before release.
Angle 2: Rear View- Camera is directly behind shooter.
The shooting hand is directly behind the ball with my two shooting fingers in the middle. Also my off-hand is at 3 o'clock. When released, the ball is released with one hand. My off-hand is vertical at release which means that I am not shooting with two hands.
Angle 3: Side View- Camera on shooting hand side.
After releasing my shot, my wrist isn't as cocked as it should be. My foot work is consistent, as you should always have the same consistent motions. Also the ball is kept in front of my body and when the ball is release my elbows are near the eyes..
Conclusion: I need to have more arch in my shot and “reach for cookies” with my shooting fingers more. So when I release the ball my wrist isn't flicking to the side.
****** I still couldn't find a way to cut the video into only my part.*******
