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!
