How to practice the fadeaway jump shot?

When watching basketball games, you often see professional athletes doing fadeaway jump shots.

However, many people find out after going to the basketball court that they simply cannot do a fadeaway jump shot. In fact, this shooting method can be developed through training.

How to practice the fadeaway jump shot?

The fade away jump shot is a relatively difficult technical move. The reason for the fade away is to prevent the person being guarded from blocking the shot. Therefore, this technical move is suitable for defenders who are taller than their opponents or have better jumping ability than themselves. At the same time, the fade away jump shot is also quite ornamental and beautiful, but the slightest deviation may even result in injury. Therefore, this move must be used with caution.

First of all, to practice the fadeaway jump shot well, you need to have very good waist strength and the ability to stay in the air, which is one of the most important factors. This can reduce or mitigate the damage to yourself caused by this action

The fadeaway jump shot also requires extraordinary sense of perception. When using the fadeaway jump shot, the body will lose balance at certain stages, but don't panic. You must adapt to this situation and keep your hands and the basket in the same straight line.

Also pay attention to the arc of the pitch. As you continue to adapt and practice, you should gradually pay attention to the arc of the pitch, slowly use your hands to give the ball an upward push, and remember to use your fingers to push the ball out.

The fadeaway jump shot does not require a high level of jumping ability; the key lies in the movement. If you dribble the ball with your right hand and break through from the right, the defensive player must follow you on the left. When the ball is within your shooting range, you can use a series of fake moves to scare the defender away. These moves also create space for the fadeaway jump shot. Of course, you can pull back or directly use the fadeaway jump shot, facing the basket, but make the basket and the two shoulders in a straight line, then rotate counterclockwise and jump up to throw the ball.

Alternatively, you can hold the ball in front of your chest with both hands, stand with your feet apart, left and right, or front and back, with your knees slightly bent and your center of gravity between your feet. When you jump backward, bend your knees quickly, push the ground with your feet and jump up, lift the ball to your shoulders with both hands, hold the ball with your right hand, and support the left side of the ball with your left hand. When your body is close to the highest point, take your left hand off the ball, straighten your right arm forward and upward, bend your wrist, and flick the ball with your index and middle fingers, and throw the ball out with your fingertips.

Finally, you can try out actual combat, or watch game videos of stars who have unstoppable fadeaway jump shots such as Jordan, Kobe, McGrady, etc., and summarize the method and conditions for fadeaway jump shots that are suitable for you. Don't rush into it, and persist in laying a solid foundation for yourself.
